    Do you have a collection of bottles that you've drank? If so where do you keep them? Do you display them? What constitutes a bottle that you keep? Does your SO appreciate the wall of beers in the living room?

    I put up all of my Halloween bottles on the hutch for our Halloween decorations.

    Started one, hate clutter, threw them away. I love taking pics on Untappd for this reason.

    I only have 4 sitting on top of my beer fridge (Huna, Darklord, Pliny & Heady) and my wife was downstairs doing laundry recently and asked why I had empty bottles of beer sitting around, to throw them away, so probably will not be starting a bottle collection... I do keep the labels to put on the fridge, and certain bottle caps to use as magnets.

    OMG I surely don't need to collect bottles of what I have had before. I get this horrible picture of every room in the house being filled with empty bottles even if I collected just one of each label style. In the more than 40 years since I passed the drinking age the number would be astronomical. I do collect bottles but full ones to age and enjoy in a few years. I've got wine back into the 80's and some beers back to about 2000. When the occasion happens to come up, some of these bottles do get emptied and then recycled.
