I am kind of a pack rat for nice bottles. As a result, I have a nice cache of them and never have to time my brewing based on when I have enough bottles. Whee!
So when my brother showed up for my Super Bowl party with a twelver of Pete's Wicked Ale, I was tickled, because it is a damn fine brew, but also because I would have those cool bottles, with "Wicked" molded into the necks, to add to my collection.
The space programs hould use the glue that they have on those labels! This is the most tenacious label I have ever run into - my compliments to them, they would certainly hold up to being chilled for hours in ice water, but my gosh, they are tough to strip off. Soaking, scrubbing with Scotch Brite, more soaking, more scrubbing - I have the first four I tried done but the rest are going into recycle!
Don't say you weren't warned!
