brown bottle
Dark glass vessel
A brown bottle is a glass container made with amber-colored glass, typically used for beer or medicine because the tint blocks light that could degrade contents.
The phrase sometimes appears in euphemisms for drinking: He's been hitting the brown bottle.
Brown-bottle flu is hangover or alcohol-related illness, usually offered as a joking excuse for missing work.
