Looks awesome.
Are those Corona bottles twist-off? I remember having issues in the past with keeping a good seal on twist-off bottles.

Nah they are pop top. I can’t recap twist offs so your memory is correct.

It’s been a while since I’ve had a Corona. The worst bottles I ever used were these: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lion_Brewery,_Inc.#Lionsh…
Not only are they twist off, but the glass is so thin some would break when sealing the cap.

Yeah I treat twist offs as one time use, they are just too hard to deal with. Aside from being clear and irredeemably labeled, Topo Chico bottles are the best. But Fischer made the best - brown and flip top.

Grolsch bottles were pretty nice as well, had a few hundred of them before I moved to corny kegs. I had a bottle depot near me that I’d pay slightly more than he could get from the distributors so he’d call me when he had a few dozen. I think when I sold them, I made a profit.
