Hi,

I've been out and about looking for Grolsch 50cl swing top bottles. Has anyone seen them for sale anywhere recently? City centre or Dublin south preferably, I just can't seem to get my hands on them....... :-(

Thanks in advance.........

Be careful of those bottles, whatever way they are cast or made, they can have a seam line of glass, I got an extremely painful splinter of glass off of one once.

The beer is quite nice, but I don't bother with the nice bottle any more.

The swing top bottles seem to be gone. The company that used to distribute them,Gleesons,doesn't seem to carry them anymore.

The 500ml swingtop bottle has been replaced with a 473ml bottle. You may get old stock of 500ml in some shops still.

Yes it does. We sell it in Fine Wines, shops all over Munster and Dublin.
