Collecting

General Beer Discussion by FLASHPRO

does anyone collect beer bottles, caps, labels etc? I started collecting bottles, but after a few hundred it's starting to take up a lot of space.

Im in a dorm also at Colorado State University, and we cut out the labels from the boxes we buy and display them in our room. its amazing to see how many we have accumulated in such a short time period. haha.

In Reply To #1 I collect pints from different breweries and bars as well. Got about 10. I used to collect caps to keep track of the brands I tried. Using beer pal is easier and takes up less space

I've always collected the coasters/beermats and have kept adding to those my father collected in Europe back in the late 1950's. The bottle collection may become a problem as I hope to display them in some way, perhaps on shelving in my yet-to-be contructed workshop. But, at over 250 bottles and growing weekly, space may a limiter. Maybe cash in the domestics and display the imports only?

I collect caps in a box. As I drink them I toss them in the box. Then when I have enough, I go out and buy a clear lamp, and fill up the lamp with the caps. It's acutally a pretty cool thing. The last time I made one, my ex took it with her when she became the ex. I used to collect beers as a kid. My dad used to travel the country and bring me weird cans and bottles from all over. Most of them are long gone, but I still have quite a few. On top of my TV right now are a can of Guinness and a can of Newcastle from 1985 -- unopened. They are quite the conversation starter.

I collect pint glasses (over 400 different ones) and growlers from brewpubs (about 15 or so).
