Yeah, but think about all the Grolsch flip-tops you could score out of that mess!:)

Look closely, though - those are brown bottles. Only in the U.S. has the green bottle become a silly status symbol.

And they look like 12 ouncers too Ray, no flippers - no loss.

Buncha gosh darn foolishness!

If they were flip tops, it would have been a loss... but that's about it. ;)

By golly Steve ,you are observant. I didnt even notice the bottles ARE brown!! Well then thats a horse of a different color. No big beer loss,but the futures of some of those bottles may have included some great homebrew, and I rejoice no further :mad:

Hmmmm.....I would have sworn I detected several tell-tale white flip-tops in that assortment.....oh, well.....nevermind.

Well, not particularly -- I've just received that same tragic picture via e-mail about 10 times from all of my friends - :rolleyes: I keep telling them I'm not terribly distraught over it.

Yeah, same here. Lots of family and friends have seen it and are sending it to me.
