    Had to pull out some Ken Onion shit on my estate bottle a while back. That wax was no joke. Normally I can chip off enough to get the opener on it and get it opened pretty easy.

    That stuff was triple dipped or something.

    lol I recall the first time I bought the estate at a bar. The bartender took about 5 minutes to open the thing. I just have to say it. I don't care what the bottle looks like beyond funny stuff and nicely done fonts. I'm all good for looking cool stuff. But the wax is a marginal addition but cool for beers that should be aged.

    IMO the bottom line is if I have to pay for the package, I don't want it. I want all beers in 12 oz bottles with no foil or wax.

    Sac up you weenies, I machete the top of the bottle off, then drink from the bottle. The glass provides a very nice shredding sensation to my internal organs

    I absolutely deteste wax caps. I don't let a beer sit out for 10 minutes to warm to only then have to spend 10 minutes to open the darn thing! Also, Some of the GI Sisters caps gave me trouble (ie Sophie/Matilda). Maybe I am just bad at opening beer, but my gut says otherwise.
