    Bottle Bombs - Why and How to Dispose?

    Ok, yes I plan on jeaning, jacketing, and scarfing up (going to be sweating here in teh caribbean!). Have a faceshield I got for Covid and will put on some snorkeling goggles just to be extra safe. Do you all think the other beer should be ok? I am just going to toss the blond ale. It isn't...
