    Anyone have this issue I've seen two places now where the bottles are just exploding for no reason ?

    The glass wasn't manufactured to withstand this amount of hype

    Obvious infection issues. Everyone send me your remaining bottles for proper disposal...

    So it looks like these 2 bottles were a rare deal or someone did something with them and are just saying they blew up.

    actually, i believe they did.

    there was ongoing talk of "moldy" bottles early into last years release. pretty sure those moldy bottles & case cardboards were the result of lots of exploding 12oz. brethren. i don't know this for a fact but assumed GI might have switched to the new bottle design (which is notoriously more durable than 12 oz Bud bottles) as a direct reaction to last year's explosive situation.
