Liberal Elitist Beer Snobs
Do you prefer the twist off or pry off caps with your bottle of beer? Cans are excluded from this discussion.

I have found that the beer inside can go across the entire spectrum. Better beers do not need to have pry off caps in my experience.

1. Pry-offs, if there's no cork

4. Pry
And I actually think that many imports are better in the can than the bottle. Especially if the bottle is green. I'll take a can of Heineken, but I hate the skunky bottles. Czechvar, one of my favorites, is excellent in the brown half liter bottle, and in Europe under the name of Budvar it was always good from the .5 liter can as well, but the 12 oz green bottles often suck

6. I don't care, as long as it has "Guinness" on the outside

8. Well, I typically like more obscure beers which do have pry-offs, but...
I've really been into Boulevard lately, a KC beer, and they twist. Very good beer for your money. I also really like Pete's Wicked Ale, which, I believe, went to twist-offs some years ago. And for an anyday/anyoccasion beer, Shiner's always good...also twist-off.

No, I'm not that snobby.
