Ok I'm still several weeks from bottling and kegging.
I have the Keg system on order should be here next week.
But I've realized that sharing my new brew... if it's good will be a hassle.. unless they pound down my front door.. Yeikers!
So I have lots of wine bottles lying around as I tried my hand at wine making years ago. So have the equipment for bottling wine.
So my question is can I bottle beer in them with corks to seal... Prime with sugar for carbonation... or will the carb blow the corks and make a showery mess?
Agreed, don't use wine bottles for beer. Even if you get a wire harness for champagnes around it you still could have a bottle bomb. I would keg it and then use something like this: Beer gun to bottle when you need it.

Never, ever, ever buy empty bottles. Instead, buy a case or two of a beer you like and then slowly empty them.
+1 couldn't agree more!

Well maybe the neighbor's have some.. I don't normally buy beer in bottles, I prefer going to the pub and having beer off the tap, usually what ever seasonal they have or some special brew.
Fish Tale Ale's is my local brew pub and I like their beer. It's just not quite the same in a bottle.
Wine Bottles?? Will that work?
