amber bottles
Light-blocking glass vessels
Amber bottles are glass containers made with a brownish-yellow tint that blocks ultraviolet light.
The coloring protects light-sensitive contents from degradation, making them standard for beer, medications, and essential oils.
The pharmacy switched to amber bottles to extend shelf life.
The amber color has become associated with craft brewing and natural products.
