Price: $50.00
Pros: It's super easy to clean and sanitize. I can see my beer. It doesn't stain. Cleaning with a brush doesn't scar the surface, leaving it rough. Also, I can see my beer.
Cons: If proper care is not taken, light can definitely ruin the flavor of the beer. I ferment in a closet, so this is not much of an issue for me. Glass is heavier than plastic alternatives. I have huge muscles, so this is also not an issue for me.
Recommended? Yes

Comments: Glass is a more expensive option, but I feel that it's well worth it.

Comments: This thing works effectively for what it is intended for. However, glass is very heavy and dangerously slippery when wet. If I ever drop five gallons of better in this thing, I'm going to have to cry myself to sleep. I would get a Better Bottle instead, or a bucket.

Comments: Easier to keep clean, don't have to be worried about scratches in plastic harboring bacteria. A bit more difficult to move though
