Grolsch Bottles

Post by reg »

Hi there,
I am after some Grolsch swing top bottles.
Does any one on this site have any that they would like to get rid of or know where I can get some.
I am located in Melbourne but would be prepared to pay for postage from other parts of oz.
Cheers
Reg

Check out ebay as i know that most on here that i have heard of have come from there, cant guarantee that they will have them but its more likely than someone here getting rid of them, they are like gold and not often parted with by brewers :lol: :wink:

I just bought a box of 20 Grolsch swing tops from the 1st Choice in Tooronga Village for $63 on special. I figure that is about what you'd pay for a slab of Coopers plus a box of PET bottles.

I'm throwing a party and needed some non home brew, so I guess it is a win/win situation (for me)...

From memory, the normal price at that place was $73, but at Dangerous Dan's they're over $80. I'm thinking of inviting a couple more people to my party to justify the purchase of another box...

My wife told me:

President George Dubya is being briefed by one of his aides. "Six Brazilian soldiers were killed in a border skirmish last night, Mr President".

George looks down at his desk in dismay. "Oh, that's terrible."

After a short while. "How many is a Brazilian?"

Sorry.

I should have, but i think they were pushing the best before date.They tasted just like grolsch tho. I really only wanted the bottles, the beer was free IMO.

I'll stick with the Cooper PET bottles. I've managed to get a couple of 375ml green lemonade PET bottles that I use for sampling.
