getting ready to bottle
|

Has anyone else had to drink an obsessive amount of brew to free up bottles for more brew? because this is what my life has come to.

What a wonderful life it is...unless it is crappy beer you are forced to drink.

So far I have just been buying new bottles. $10 for a 12-pack of bombers is hard to argue with...

Sounds like you have exceeded your limit and need to build up your bottle supply. I know that means drinking more beer but at least when you are done you have more bottles!

Take a stroll through the neighborhood on recycle day, tons of free bottles in those plastic bins.

Well it's a brew that I made, a pale ale, so not so bad! I had 3 cases of bottles, but had to leave them in Louisiana due to lack of space in the car when I moved... also don't have a lot of money for more bottled beer. Building from the ground up, one brew at a time.
