Empty Bottles

You could look for them on eBay.

 

I have kept very few. Usually they go to recycling.

 

It was sort of a "tongue in cheek" response to the whole "eBay is the devil" thread.

Although, this is probably the best place to be looking for those bottles. But if someone has kept the bottles that long they may have some attachment to them.

But good luck in your search!!

 

I only save/collect empty Dark Lord Bottles(one of each type). I currently have all 10 of the empty base Dark Lord bottles(Yes 10! there were two 2005 versions) and I'm only missing the 2006 Oak Aged Swing Top bottle for the Barrel Aged set.

 

Man, could you imagine if those were all still full? You could probably trade them all for an Ann!

 

You could build a retaining wall



Whale Wall, Bro.

 

I collect bottles.
Then I put my homebrew in em.
Can't wait to use my pliny bottles for my stout =)

 

Watch yourself. I tried to do the same thing but Pliny 500ml bottles have a slightly different crown size so it didn't work for me. I have heard that it can work but I am not sure what you need to do different (different crowns? upright capper?)

 

Oh man I thought it was the same as 12oz....thanks for the heads up =)

 

I do have an empty CBS or two and a Better Half bottle. If you want them you can have em! Just shoot me a BM

 

ISO: Darkness vertical...just realized how they designate years...AWESOME

 

The only walez I have are BCBS 09, hunahpu, Darkness, CBS, BA Sexual Chocolate, and Dark Lord 12.

 

Would make a cool piece of artwork for the season, how appropos

 

i'm a label saver...bottles gets out of hand quick. every now and then you come across cool bottles that don't have labels so i've been saving some of the cooler ones, but at this point, even the bottles i save are starting to get to be too much. i really need to figure out what to do with cans.

 

I collect empty bottles for brewing! I also peel certain labels off and the wife makes them into magnets.

 

I save my whale bottles. Also saving my Cantillon bottles since I'm determined to do something with them.

 

I peel off neat labels if they remove easily... I do save some bottles, both for historical interest and for an eventual over-bar display -- currently I have interesting De Dolle bottles, old Courage/Barclay-Perkins RIS bottles, and a complete Deschutes Reserve series (well, not currently complete... need to track down the last couple releases. Been harder to get my hands on them since I moved to the east coast ).
