Anchor Steam Bottle

[DBake]

Who makes these bottles? Where can I get them?

 

[lumpher]

anchor brewing co contracts them out to some unknown agent

You could just go buy a crapload of anchor steam and drink it...

 

[Hophazard]

Well - you could buy me a few six packs; I'll unselfishly drink the beer so that you can have the bottles. I'll even ship them for free

I have found those bottles to be a little fragile. Have a dozen or so in rotation and have busted the top off of a couple. Picked up a couple Liberty Ale bomber bottles that are sweet. Great looking bottles but like I said, be gentle with the capper

Nice, but the lip is pretty small. Sometimes it's a close call with the wing capper, but it usually works.

Save you a little pain.

I had a bro in law that liked Corona, as I did, so we saved the bottles. To start your Home Brewing with, any bottle will do. DON'T let the bottles sit without being rinsed (pain in the....you know). His were growing crap in them, and were a pain to clean. Coronas in the 12 pack have the cardboard to keep sunlight out. Brown bottles are the best, but I keep mine in the closet, even clear bottles are good if you can keep the sunlight off of them.

Yeah, I quit using them because they were the only kind that broke when I capped them.
