The Grolsch swing-top bottle dates back to 1897, which is pretty amazing when you consider that many other brewers once capped with swing-tops before finding cheaper, automated ways to cap their beers.

Grolsch also lagers for six weeks, which is practically unheard of among commercial lager-makers, many of whom have cut the process down to as little as two weeks.

 Pranks and a Grolsch Review
I had heard a couple good things about Grolsch too, namely, "That beer is good.", "I like Grolsch and then sticking the bottle up my ass." You'd think the second part of that last comment would've clued me in to not take this guy seriously but I suppose I wasn't thinking straight.
By the time I got to my Grolsch I already had ingested a few Bud's so I was feeling good, but I took a few swigs of the Grolsch and in the blink of an eye I felt like shit.
