LF: Some beer bottles
Anybody know where to find a couple dozen Grolsch bottles? The Gahan (PEI) bottles would also work out, (short 500ml) but I'd prefer the swing tops. If you've got some kicking around, I could sure use 'em. Name your price. I have a chrome beer faucet collecting dust if that is any interest to you... Other miscellaneous items for trade, just let me know what you are looking for (that includes money!)

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
Let me see what I can do. A buddy at work is getting rid of some Grolsch bottles. He's been kinda slack about dropping them off, but let me remind him again that I want them.

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
If X changes his mind, I've got a bunch of Grolsch & Fischer (brown glass, ~600ml swing tops). I've probably got a few Gahan/Picaroons (I think they're they same) kicking around too.
A chrome faucet is like gold to someone still collecting parts for his kegerator.

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
Looks like you found some, but worse case scenario if your leads don't pan out, i have some here in NB.

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
Well if there are enough floating around out there, I could make use of about 36. I can easily go pick 'em up around town. Name your price. If anyone needs that chrome faucet, by all means... I will poke around to see if I've got anything else that may be of use to someone building a kegerator.
How tall are the 600ml swing tops? I have some of the 750s and they are too tall unfortunately. I can't use anything taller than about 10 1/4 inches. Brown is definitely preferable to green, but only if they will stack in milk crates.
Please send me a PM if you've got any for me.

I have a keg to keg jumper that hasn't gotten much use... Basically it's just two liquid QDs and a liquid line... If anybody is really hurting for QDs I can cannibalize that.

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
The Fischer bottles are 650ml and you can perfectly fit 12 into a milk crate and they do in deed stack nicely 
The newer style grolsch are 450ml and you can fit 16 in a milk crate. The old style are 473ml, and 15 fit in a milk crate but they're tight.

I can transport things from Amherst and/or Fredericton back to Halifax to help make this love match happen. I am making that trip on Wednesday.

If you haven't come up with bottles yet I can trade you 3 dozen for the faucet. PM me for pickup/dropoff info.

Re: LF: Some beer bottles
I picked up Jmac's 5 dozen Fisher bottles this morning in Fredericton, and dropped them off @ moxie's this afternoon.
And will be returning with Jmac's faucet and keg connector on Monday.
Hooray!

Yup, thanks for the replies. I've got plenty of bottles. Looking forward to brewing a bit more to keep the stream going.
Thanks again for facilitating the exchange, Chris!
