I've gpt a serious thing for coca cola and sprite in a glass bottle at the moment. Terrific stuff, tastes oh so good when ice cold.

Local PAK place sells them for 3 for £1 which is somewhat reasonable imo.

I enjoy it drinking from glass bottle much more. I don't think it affects the taste, but for me it does affect the overall experience. There is something about the weight of the glass bottle and the glass touching my lips that does something for me in a way that the plastic bottles and the cans just don't do.

Coca-cola, you should be listening. Consumers obviously like glass bottled coke way more than plastic or can bottled coke.

Like glass bottled cola, adds so much more. I drink too much of the stuff to buy it in glass bottles though frown

I always think beer tastes better from a bottle than a can, although can't think why....yum

Likewise, how come coke in a can is so much better than coke in a plastic bottle?

Yep, I guess they can't say: 'Made in Scotland from Girders' any more as it breaches the Advertising Standards Wotsit.
