Hello fellow brewers!! Up for sale/swap/beer is my Coopers bottle collection. All of them are in fantastic condition, cleaned, no labels. Crown seals, thick glass. I have made some brilliant batches in these babies and they have so much more life left in them, but I no longer have a need for...

Hi Brewers, I'm moving house, my meticulously kept beer brewing bottle collection must go. They are all 375ml, cascade light bottles. Glass is thick, never any bottle bombs or leakages. I've always used a proper capper. Kept very clean, labels removed. Very handy to have all your bottles the...
