Quality glass bottles for homebrewing
Glass bottles are an essential part of many homebrewing and winemaking setups. They provide a strong, reusable container for storing and serving finished beer, wine, cider and mead while helping protect the contents from light and oxygen when the appropriate bottle and closure are selected.
Our range includes bottles suitable for different beverages, batch sizes and bottling methods.
Beer bottles
Glass beer bottles are available in a variety of sizes and closure styles to suit different homebrew setups. Standard beer bottles are ideal for individual servings and can be used for naturally conditioning many types of homemade beer.
Depending on the bottle, suitable closures can include:
Crown caps
Swing-top closures
Other compatible bottle closures
Wine bottles
Wine bottles are designed specifically for storing and serving homemade wine. Available in traditional wine bottle shapes and colours, they are suitable for bottling wine made from SG Wines (formerly Solomon Grundy) kits, fruit wines and other homemade wine recipes.
Wine bottles can be paired with suitable corks, capsules and corking equipment to create a finished bottled product.
Cider and mead bottles
Glass bottles are also ideal for homemade cider and mead. Depending on the beverage and packaging method, brewers can choose from standard beer bottles, swing-top bottles and larger-format glass bottles.
The correct bottle should always be selected based on the finished drink and intended carbonation or storage method.
Reusable and durable
One of the biggest advantages of glass bottles is their ability to be reused. With appropriate cleaning, inspection and sanitisation, quality glass bottles can be used for multiple batches, making them a practical long-term addition to a home brewery or winery.
Glass is also resistant to absorbing flavours and aromas, making it suitable for storing a wide variety of homemade beverages.
