Comments: O.K., I feel like there are a few items on this tray which bear noting. First the reference to a Steinie. A steinie is one of the shorter, squatier Bottles than a typical long-neck. Take a look at this link to see some Chester Steinies. "The Beer that Makes Friends"? I am guessing they had a few too many Long-necks or Steines when they thought that one up. As you can see from the Pic this one is pretty rough. Not sure I like it enough to spend the kind of dollars it will take to upgrade. Other thing to note the Pilsener glass if full and the bottle is still almost 3/4's full. I like this type of bottle.
