glass bottles ALPACK

[thomas353]

not sure i can post company names here but there is a company called alpack based in dublin.
seems you can buy 30 500ml bottles for around 25euro, just wondering if anyone has dealt with such company and is it reputable, i realise its the courier that has trouble bringing bottles that so often come broken, just wondering is it a lot of trouble getting replacements ect. thanks (y)

Shipping bottles or any glassware/fragiles is always a challenge and often costly due to packaging, bulk, and weight.

Most of us here in the U.S. reuse craft beer bottles, the most common size being 12 oz. Pry off caps, no twist offs.

Many brew stores also sell those 12 oz longnecks, as well as bombers (22 oz). Some sell Belgians (750s) and other sizes, but for a price.

Have you tried getting some locally? Used ones from a pub or bar perhaps?
