What's the best way?


Never, ever use soap or detergent.

Rinse immediately with hot water. Rinse several times and then turn upside down on a drying rack. Once dry put the cap back on and store until ready to be used again.

Immediately before the growler is filled it will be sanitized on site using a chemical sanitizer. Using soap or detergent can leave residues which will affect the beer when the growler is used again.

never thought about that, I guess

I'm not sure I've ever re-used a growler, so it's never been an issue

You can use unscented Oxyclean. I let my soak overnight, rinse thoroughly and let dry upside down on a rack or like me, in a wire bicycle basket w/ a towel placed in the bottom.
