New Dogfish head bottles?

[biochemedic]

I'd be happy to hear how "meh" you think Dogfish, or any other beer is, if it's on topic....

Honestly I wasn't trying to be a dick, but DFH is such an unusual brewery, that they end up being very polarizing...most people either love them or hate them, and the back and forth of opinions (you know, everyone has one, plus one of another thing...) gets really old. It's been done to death on what seems like thousands of other threads, and anyway here we are derailed again!

Cheers...

I saw those bottles the other day. I think it was Aprihop. I'm doin the usual Friday beer and dog food. I'll check them out.

Yeah, I was really inciting a bash session. Nothing like the word "meh" to get peopled fired up.

Well jeez, sorry for posting my opinion on a web forum. I'll leave you more highly evolved internet users to it then....

says the one with the need to let highly evolved internet users know that he has 4 primaries, 3 of them empty

and no, you didn't post your opinion; you busted in, took a dump and ran away

It's real! Cool...thanks for the pics... Just like the magnum bottles, it's a tad shorter than the old school one...

Any thoughts on whether these will be safe to higher vol of CO2 than a standard bottle? I have some sour that needs bottling and I'd like a few 12 oz bottles in addition to the champagne bottles.

What is "higher" carbonation? I had some gushers I dumped that had perhaps 4.5 volumes co2 in normal bottles. No explosions.

I have bottled berliner weisse and hefeweizen to 3.5 volumes in standard bottles of all shapes and colors without issues. I have reused bottles 5 or more times and done this.

Even though they look like mini magnums, they don't have a "punt" or dimple in the bottom. The punt is said to help increase the pressure a bottle can handle.

I wouldn't think these are any stronger than a standard 12 oz bottle.
