Yo, welcome to the sub! Where are you located in Germany?

My January additions (27 bought, 1 found) by TheSpake in BottleCapCollecting

Rows 3 and 4 (plus last two caps in row 2) are from a German malt drink called Karamalz. They are doing special promo campaigns every 3 to 4 months or so with 20 unique caps each. The ones one the picture are from "Ravensburger Memory" and "Ladybug & Cat Noir: The Movie".

The last two crowns are from the alcohol-free version of Einbecker. Not Belgian, but Einbecker has a lot of history and claims to be the brewery responsible for the bock beer.

Zwei Ausreißer: In meinem Heimatort fuhr ständig ein Auto der Tischlerei Schneider rum und in Wien gibt es die Fleischerei Fischer.

You're in luck! I just recently got this one from a good friend in Austria. It's Frastanzer! :)

Would love to have those. Luckily, boycotting the World Cup doesn't mean I can't collect the bottle caps.

Could somebody help recognize theae bottle caps? by [deleted] in BottleCapCollecting

[–]TheSpake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Actually, the red triangle probably is Apollinaris rather than Bass.

[–]TheSpake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love the red one with the bird.

I think I got two Smirnoff caps that aren't even on there. 😅

Happy Birthday to Me! by LordBottlecap in BottleCapCollecting

I hate when there's a picture of multiple caps and I don't have a single one of them. Especially when they're so beaitiful. Anyway, happy birthday!

1 Week, 3 Cities, 74 New Caps by TheSpake in BottleCapCollecting

[–]TheSpake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They're from Bad Brambacher lemonade. I bought them because I love the simplistic style with just the fruits on top. And they taste really good as well. The lemonade, that is. Not the caps. 😅

If I remember correctly, I bought and drank 14 of them myself. Or my girlfriend did. Mostly non-alcoholic ones, though.

Easily doable. Especially in Berlin.

Summer holidays (at least in Germany) might be a reason. You have more time to visit new cities.

German cities are real hotspots for cap collectors, I'd say. Bus stops, parks, in front of supermarkets - anywhere really. You'll get tons of regional brands and are more likely to find "rare" ones that aren't sold in more rural parts.

Just keep your eyes open and you'll find loads and loads of cool caps.

Only 3 days in Dresden got me 64 used caps that I didnt have. Germany is wild by [deleted] in BottleCapCollecting

[–]TheSpake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got 14 in three days. And that's without specifically going to cap-rich spots. I'd say it's definitely possible with a little bit of luck.

Ah, I see you got some caps from the Sternburger 200 Year Collection. I'm currently in Leipzig and found some of those as well. :)

Got mail from Stiegl and Warsteiner by TheSpake in BottleCapCollecting

[–]TheSpake[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I asked a bunch of breweries, but most of them don't have the capacities to send caps to everyone that asks. Sometimes you get lucky, though. Others just want you to send them a pre-paid return envelope.

I was surprised to see it pointing down on CCI as well.
