Im a day or two away from bottling day on my first batch. Have been collecting, cleaning, and sanitizing empty bottles all week. Im up to 44 ready to go. So last night i went out and picked up a 12 pack Dundee sampler for me and some friends to consume and put me up to 56. Twist tops... son of a.... Fail!

=P

I've used twist tops without a problem before (in a pinch). I guess they can break when you cap them sometimes, but I didn't have that problem. You're call on that one.

Im not even gonna bother with the twistys, i will get what i need irregardless. I am close to a major hook up from a local bar. Shallows in greenwood Indiana i widely known as the premier craft beer bar in the state. They carry over 500 different brews throughout the year. My cousin has worked for them for years and is trying to get the owner to hook me up with all the bottles i will ever need. Keeping my fingers crossed!
