In general I'm willing to use any type of beer bottle for my home brew, friends and family save them for me and few from my local pub. :
Today I managed to pick up half dozen Singha bottles from my local Thai restraunt, a very useful 630ml :thumb:
Anyway it got me thinking.... :whistle: :shock: What bottles to people prefer, and does anyone try to stick to one type for each brew?
Although clear I do like the Newcastle Brown bottles, particularly the logo "The one and only" Of the 'shaped' bottles I've come across, Wychwood and Crabbies look good, Hook Norton is a nice classic bottle , made from new lighter glass which is good for storing., however their labels are difficult to remove. I like the Badger bottles too but have had problems capping these in the past, so thumbs down for them. Don't particularly go for the tall slender bottles eg Timothy Taylor Landlord (love the beer though!) Of course the St.Peters bottles are one of the more unusual. :hmm:
