From 1962 to 1984 Canadian beers were bottles in a bottle called the "Stubby". This was an icon of Canada and its love for beer. The bottles were eventually replaced with the American style long neck bottle similar to the bottle we now drink today. The purpose of this survey is to get 100,000 signatures to send to the main brewers in Canada to have them bring back the "Stubby", a glass bottle that is an icon in Canadian beer history. Sign it because you love beer or because you're proud to be a Canadian and appreciate the distinction or because of the nostalgia or all of the above! Let's see if we can convince the beer powers to being back our beloved "Stubby". Please visit the following sites regarding the Stubby and its history: www.stubby.ca/ http://www.canadianliving.com/food/entertaining/canadian_beer_bottles_do_you_know_your_history.php http://www.canadianliving.com/food/entertaining/remembering_canadian_stubby_beer_bottles.php http://www.cbc.ca/archives/categories/economy-business/business/selling-suds-the-beer-industry-in-canada/a-sad-farewell-to-stubby.html

I have been reading through the memories you are posting about the Stubby and it is clear that many people miss this piece of our history. Your stories about those classic bottles are the reason this is gaining momentum. I am just a person who loves beer, but it seems there are a lot of you who feel the same way.

Stubby was best way to cool beer and an icon of Canada. Every time I watch Strange Brew, I get nostalgic. I loved OV in a bottle

Bring back the stubby, it's so much more practical to fill a fridge with the smaller bottles and they have so much more character and history!

Miss the old stubby bottles big time. They fit in the cooler way better than these tall ones and just felt right in your hand. Bring em back!
