    500ml. The perfect amount for a week night.

    I prefer the 16.9070114 oz swing-top versions :stuck_out_tongue:

    EDIT: Second favourite is the ~84.5oz "Darwin Stubby" just because why not? However, I haven't heard of any good beer coming in this format :wink:

    Anything with wax because the wax makes it more rare.

    The longneck, style #1, is my favorite. That said cans beat them all. Way easier to stack and easier to transport for outdoor adventures.

    I love the 22oz bomber. I just don't always love the price that comes comes with them sometimes. 2 12oz bottles of a beer are always way cheaper than a bomber for 2oz more beer if a brewery puts out both. Whatever? I still love bombers.

    I'm not too particular as long as it's 12 oz.

    Nice to see I'm not alone at all with the stubby bottle preference. Definitely something I really like about them, though I can't say what it is.

    While not a true 16oz. bottle, Urban Chestnut out of St. Louis offers 4-packs of 16.9 oz.(I think the same as Ayinger Oktoberfest bottles) as their standard format. Pretty unique packaging...

    Are looking for a new format @Sixpoint? 12 ounce cans are already my favorite. :wink: But choosing from your options I would have to go with the sexy corked and caged 750ml.

    I voted for the 16oz bottle. Something about having a pint of beer just sounds the best to me.

    Heritage. same reason I love cans. They are more compact and I can fit them in my fridge's door shelfs.

    16oz bottle, albeit not a true pint, it fits into a glass with one single pour and provides a decent amount of beer in one sitting. I also love the 375mL cork and cage bottle and I wish more brewers used it for big beers.
