My DH and I were just sitting here talking about thanksgiving and I can't even remember how we got to talking about alcohol--but he said that he'd just seen where some company (he couldn't remember which) said that they were making a grooved beer bottle and he didn't understand why. I told him about the little white dingy thing inside that expensive Guinness beer. When I bought it for the heart worm prevention, the first bottle I picked up rattled. I thought there must have been broken glass inside, so set it aside and picked up another bottle, which also rattled! I opened it and poured it out and this little white thing was in the bottle. So I googled and came up with the fact that they put those white things in there to 'aerate and mix' the beer for 'better flavor' when you drink it. I told him I would imagine that whatever company it was would just put straight grooves inside the bottle, and I wished it would be spiral groves as that would give a vortex. Those bottles would be great to have. Suddenly I thought I'd Google for grooves in glass beer bottles and this came up! I'm looking for some to buy when I go downtown! http://www.brandweek com/bw/content_display/news-and-features/packaged-goods/e3ie9fc421daf51cf8277 1aacc90afc319 Samala, Renee
