a few we had at work were shiner bock and its derivatives (winter brew, etc), bud and bud light, miller and miller lite, coors and coors light. that is by *no means* an exhaustive list. another way to find out would be to go to a local grocery store and peek at what they say on the boxes.

Why are there not more beer bottles with twist off caps?
Most mass-market beers, like those made by Anheuser-Busch, Coors, and Miller have twist-off caps you can open with your hands, but craft brews tend to have pry-offs that require a bottle opener. Pry-off capping equipment is slightly less costly than twist-off equipment, which is a factor for some small breweries. But many craft brewers choose pry-off caps not for the savings but because they believe those caps provide a better seal against oxygen. "Oxygen is one of beer's greatest enemies; it causes beer to become stale," said Garrett Oliver, brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewery, which uses pry-offs. It's difficult to say, however, how much of a safeguard pry-off caps provide. Steve Harrison, vice president of Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, says that his R&D department has studied the oxygen barriers on twist-off and pry-off caps for a dozen years. In those tests, they found a slight difference, but not enough to have a significant effect on the beer. (Sierra did, however, recently switch from twist-offs to pry-offs. The reason the brewery began using a new bottle-cap lining material was that provides a much better oxygen barrier but is too stiff to work with twist-offs.) Maybe people just think pry-offs are more legitimate. The Brewers Association, a trade organization for craft brewers, estimates that 80 to 85 percent of its members use pry-off caps on their beer bottles. This reinforces the idea among craft-beer drinkers that only good beers use pry-offs. Admits Oliver, "Twist-offs have a cheaper image." Another good reason for the pry-off is the feel of the mouth of the bottle on the lips of the drinker. The little ridges on the mouth of a bottle with a twist off cap feel unpleasant compared to the smooth glass of a bottle with a pry-off cap. When Pete's Brewing Company switched to pry off caps about 6 years ago, this was the primary reason their marketing department gave for the switch.
Who invented the bottle caps?
The first modern bottle cap was a screw-on cap invented in 1856. There was also a recloseable wire-and-cap type of bottle cap invented in the same year, still used today on some high-end beers such as Grolsch. The modern "crown cap" bottle cap was invented in 1890, modernized to the "pilfer proof" cap in 1936, and twist-off bottle caps in 1966. Bottle caps are no longer manufactured today, as most people drink their beer straight from their high-speed internet connection. :)

How was luck a factor in Louis Pasteur's discovery of germ theory im 1861?
Luck was a factor because, at the time a beer companies beer was going off, so they decided to ask Pasteur for help. He then found that germs were the cause of the beer going bad. so therefore luck was most certainly a factor.
