I bottled my very first batch of homebrew, a B3 stout from MoreBeer.com, in a few 22 oz. bottles with crown caps but mostly Grolsch style flip top 16 oz. bottles. All but a handfull of the flip top bottles were flat. The beer bottled in 22 oz. bottles was fantastic. Has anybody else had trouble with these flip top bottles?
 
Bottle conditioned for four weeks at room temp. Then moved the bottles out to the garage where it is a bit cooler, but not cold for another couple of weeks.
 
Well I'm gonna guess bottles. If you have any beers left, put water around the seal and shake the bottle. If you've got a leak, you should see bubbles where air escaping the bottle.
