yes, i guess i agree that there aren't enough of us to matter. i think homebrewing among the masses has fizzled now that microbrews have really got their teeth into people and are everywhere.
I use the PET bottles along with kegging my beer. I turned in all of my glass bottles years ago. Yes, buying single cans of beer in Ontario is not cheap. Multiply them by 17 and you get what it costs to buy a 24 of beer. Our cans are 473 ml by the way. Using my CPBF with my PET bottles is quick and easy. Too bad there is no where to take them at the moment except to my back yard.
exactly, i cant stand that 473ml. its visibly less than a tallboys volume when poured into a pint glass, so for the highly priced ontario microbrew cans youre actually getting even less value than for a 500ml can from anywhere else.
i considered PET bottles for my quick and cheap basic beers, but havent done it yet. I just already have more than enough glass. I'm completely anal about saving and cleaning every bottle. Even found some very old homebrew hidden in a crawlspace from more than a decade ago. got two stubby 341ml bottles and one 550ml samuel smith bottle.
are you in ontario?
