Hmmm! I can just see me telling my ice hockey pals that I am going to buy an orange handbag for the big game tonight.

Pointless inviting them around for a "PIMMS" then?:winker: I take it none of them play for GForce.

( Team GForce is made up of the best Gay male Ice Hockey players in North America)

Could have sworn we called them yellow Hand Bags Paul mate?

I served in Lemgo with 1RRW, we too called them "Yellow Handbags".
I was out in Lemgo in 2007 and they now come in a "Blue" case.

What's all the nonsense about handbags . I don't recall any of you being Coffee Pots . When I was in Bravos , the call was "get the beers in" , who cares what they look like as long as it's cold .:winker:

How many members remember the bottles being a 'Flip Top'?

[Guvs]

All I can say to this thread is, my memory isn't as good as it use to be but saying that "Orange handbags" seem to roll off my tongue as if it was yesterday, and I'm afraid "Yellow handbags" doesn't have the same effect, lol
As for being Blue

[Braz]

The only flip top bottles I've seen lately is the lovely Dutch Beer Grolsch.

just for info boys the flip top bottle we had in berlin was flensberger pils , brewed in Berlin charlottenburg, plus the grolsch now that was a wicked beer

Ditto Guvs, I know Arrsepedia calls them Yellow, but orange seems more familiar!!

I seem to have made an incorrect statement earlier as i thought yellow was the only colour the beer in question was related to, my appologies to Hingey and all that knew I was wrong.
