Beer bottle with message from 1955 found hidden in walls of Delaware home

It is an infusion of leaves.

A nearly 70-year-old beer bottle was found inside the wall of a Delaware home, and the person who put it there left a cheeky message for a future finder.

The long-missing green bottle of Gunther beer was found by a man who was conducting a hazardous materials inspection at the home, which is more than 100 years old.

“I have never found anything like it after 17 years and over 3,000 demolition inspections of every type of building or facility you can imagine,” the man, who only identified himself as David, told Newsweek.

On the bottle’s label someone had scrawled: “This bottle was placed here by the plumber on 03/25/55” more than 68 years ago.

David said the entire inspection team was shocked by the discovery.

“At first I thought it was a bottle full of urine, as I have seen many times throughout my career, drywall workers are known for this, as they work hard and don’t get many breaks,” he told half.

“Once we realized it was an empty beer bottle, we thought it was cool, then we noticed the note and were impressed,” he said. “We all stopped working to admire him and speculate about the origin of him, the plumber, and what was happening in 1955.

The house, which is in “poor condition,” is being demolished to make way for a parking lot, David said.

David posted the bottle and message to Reddit’s r/mildlyinteresting subreddit, where others shared secrets they also found hidden in walls during housework.

The house where he was found is being demolished to make way for a parking lot. A plumber apparently wrote a note on the bottle before placing it inside the wall in March 1955.

“I found one in my house during remodeling. It was in the bathroom. There was a note from 1912 when the house was built, one from 1945 when it was remodeled (he talked a lot about the war and how his son died), one from 1976, and then the one from 2014 that I left behind. All the same jar,” wrote one Redditor.

Gunther Brewing Company was based in Baltimore and dates back to before Prohibition, according to Newsweek. The brewery produced 800,000 barrels of beer a year and employed about 600 people.

The company stopped brewing beer in 1960, when it was purchased by Hamm’s Brewing Company, which later became part of Miller Brewing Company.
