Very Good. (7.8). 25 x 8 mm bubble to inner lower right neck looks to be burst, this looks shallow. Plenty of scuffs and scratches scattered around, some scuffed areas and some are slightly discoloured too, but none of these are overly deep. Embossing is nice and clear in general, the line below Ballarat Ales is lightly embossed as per manufacture. Great example of this classic, still one of Australia's best and most desirable beer bottles, only the second one we have sold. Estimate: $7500-10000
