I promised a guy at work that I would give him a bottle of my IIPA. So, today I took him a 32oz bottle (it was in a used Lagunitas Sucks Quart bottle) filled off my keg.
Well, I didn't leave any headspace... none. After lunch the bottle had raised from 40F to room temperature (72F ?) while sitting on his desk.
The whole bottom blew out. I helped him clean it up. But it was a a bit of a disaster our pretty conservative office. Smelled nice to me but I am sure others did not appreciate it!
Hope this helps someone or is at least entertaining!
(not my best day as a homebrewer)
