Worried you won’t kill that growler of craft brew before it turns stale? Spacebar in Falls Church offers fill-ups in this decade’s most hyped and loathed vessel: mason jars. [WBJ]

There’s a new croissant monster in town: Meet the crogal, a croissant shaped like a bagel, then boiled and baked. [Gothamist]
