Hey everyone.
Looking for a half dozen or so heavier duty glass beer bottles.
I want to bottle a few higher carbed beers in them for a comp. I'm aiming for some that can handle at least 3.6vol of carb.

Thanks in advance :spilly:

I've got a stash of them but not likely much good to you in Truro!

Are you looking for the cage and cork bottles? Or just thicker beer bottles?
I've got a bunch of brown beer, crown cap, bottles. A lot of them are heavier than your typical bomber (say from Boxing Rock). They are from Beau's, 500ml I think. But they do have raised glass design on them, so maybe not great for comps.
Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I have some I could give you if you wanted to see.

I was hoping just thicker brown bottles. It's for the big spruce comp. Not bottle carbing...keg carbing then bottling

I have 4 at home (500mL) and are the 26mm cap size I believe (will double check when I get home), also some had brett in them.

They are the bottles from Tata and North brett/sours. Pretty sure they are the thick glass and the same ones Stillwell Brewing uses.

Ok good, are you going to be at the grain group buy this weekend? I could leave the bottles at Everwood for ya, if not I'm around all weekend. I will double check tonight when I get home that there are four of them.
