Unlike, it seems a lot of people around here, I don't have any
nostalgic/sentimental feeling about 'stubbies'. I always thought they
were pretty ugly. I think it reinforced some feelings about imports
being better than Canadian beer.

Eventually the breweries will have to rethink their bottles. I hope
that they do standardize on one (or very few types of) bottle. But
I think that should be a long neck. Why do most beers from around the
world come in long neck bottles? Tradition, plus surely, practicality.

... Til next brew,
