    Hi everyone,

    I'm a bottle designer (yes, that job exists) and am trying to find an example of a swing top plus pry example for a customer. I know I've seen them on the market before (particularly in craft beer) but the brand is slipping my mind at the moment.

    The bottle is sold with a pry crown but also has the swing top cage (a.k.a. EZ Cap) for resealability. It might have even been in a gunmetal grey ceramic bottle, if that helps. Thanks a lot!

    Kristin

    Edit: The bottle I am thinking of is the Rogue XS Imperial Stout (nom nom). But if you guys can think of any other brands that use this type of closure, that would be awesome.

    I want to say I've seen bottles from BFM that have that feature... but a quick google search isn't turning up anything of those.

    UCLABrewn84 beat me to it, but Howe Sound out of Squamish, British Columbia bottles most of their beer in 1L pry-off + swing top bottles. Can be viewed here: http://www.howesound.com/brewery/beers.aspx

    They are not a brewer but the Sea Cider Farm & Ciderhouse from Saanich, British Columbia uses 750ml pry & swing bottles for their ciders. They don't show the bottles on their website but a quick google search should give you a pretty good idea.

    Rogue. All of their ceramic high-grav series come this way.
