1971, bottom of a lake, I found an 1857 bottle of beer, with contents intact.
The bottle “cap” was a cork, surrounded by wax, and that, surrounded by metal foil, and that, had a metal wire mesh snugged up around it.
With the bottle upright, about 3/8 inch of black material floated on top of the beer.
Very soon after, along came a movie:
“The Andromeda Strain”
I promptly tossed the bottle into the trash.
The bottle included a label as part of the glass. I located the brewery - it was still standing at an old seafaring port. IIRC, the brewery was built in 1851.
The port also had one of the original marine hardware stores - an amazing collection of old sailing ships’ gear. Lots of brass, bronze, and copper fasteners and fittings.
Shelves and wood drawers stacked up to the ceiling on both sides of that store. Long ladders on rails that you could move along - like in an old library.
I just happed by that store, when they were doing an annual inventory . . . that was to be their last.
Don’t you mean the oldest white vinegar ever found?

The rest is...history.
Wow. That’s where my cousin’s from. Didn’t realize that part of Alabama was that old.
