While using one of the many bottle openers that live in many of my kitchen drawers and I thought to myself that folks like us would be in a world of hurt without these handy dandy little keys to the some of the best stuff we ever drank! I also started to think about my grandmother who was a secretary at Crown Cork and Seal and the odd little connections that our past makes with our present so thanks for that Grandma!
Humble and ubiquitous as they are, let's show them the same love we do our homebrews, our beer glasses, our boils!
Below is one of my oldest which I am sure must have come into the house through my folks and I wouldn't be surprised if from my grandparents as the Gunther brewery was on the east side of Baltimore not too far from where my dad grew up. The place changed hands to Hamm's at about the time I was born so its got to be at least as old as I am!
So, show us your opener and tell us a story!
