I can see this one providing endless hours of fun and endless hours of hangovers starting the day after the party. It’s also probably a good idea for this post-Christmas time of year when most of us have got a load of half-drunk bottles of all sorts sitting in our cupboards.

Now come on! Does anybody seriously collect beer? The whole notion of someone actually collecting beer sums up an image of a guy opening the fridge or cupboard door, staring admiringly at the bottles (and maybe even stroking a few) before closing it again still thirsty. In the loosest sense of the term I suppose that I am collector of beer but in the Homer Simpson mould. I collect a slab on a weekly basis and would you believe it I have to collect another load a week later! Read more
