[newbee17]

Yeh the bottles are clear with a French lemmonade in them I'm not a big fan of the lemmonade but like dese bottles I store my cider and beer in them,have the shed shelved out like wine racks not a lot of light gets in but does get sum what happends if light gets at the beer as nobody has told me to keep it in the dark??

I guess I should start covering dese up with cloth or sunting?

If the bottles are clear, and it's BEER that's inside them, then you need to stop light from hitting them. For the hard lemonade, I would still do what I can to block light from hitting them during storage.

If you have a closet you can put them into, or a set of cabinets, that would work (put them into a box first)... If you're not sure about the box thickness, then either a heavy blanket, or towel will help too.

Oh, I found these at the grocery store - $2.99 a piece (US). I wish I knew someone who bought them, because I would certainly pay them half of that for each. I'm going to buy them on the day of the month they have 10% off for students and dump it all out. I wish it was something I would actually drink, but I don't drink soda. I hope they still have them in. It's a grocery store that resells closeouts and stuff and although they've had that stuff for a while, they'll sell out eventually.

I'll get them in time to bottle my apfelwein in, I hope!

The fresh'n'easy line of stores has them too. They work great, just gotta take precautions to keep them out of UV!
