Beer bottle

A beer bottle is a bottle made to contain beer, usually made of glass. Bottled beer has been in use since as early as the 16th century. Beer bottles come in various sizes, shapes and colours.

Dark amber or brown glass greatly reduces UV light from spoiling the beer. However, lighter coloured bottles are often used for marketing reasons. The common alternative/competition to glass bottles are beverage cans and aluminium bottles.
