i haven't come across many bottles in the past few months but have come across 2 bottles from Kingston Ontario which happen to be from the same bottler .

the embossed 7 oz bottle i found at an antique mall in southern ontario , its marked " S.V. Horne A.B.W. Kingston " contents 7 oz , believe its from the 30's or 40's . the A B W seems to refer to american bottling works .

the acl beehive bottle i found at a private sale , but unfortuently by the time i found out most of the good acl bottles had been sold already , i got this one for a reasonable price due to its condition . some of the red/white acl is gone but alot still there and bottle has a neat look to it and fairly hard bottle to find , it would seem to date from 40's > early 50's

reads " S.V. Horne , Beverages , American Bottling Works , Kingston Ont " embossed contents 11 oz

Too bad that ACL is mostly gone.

true but still a really hard one to find period . the seller did originally have some other good ones for sale but had been sold already by the time i finally noticed there post online .

Thanks for posting RCO.
Here is mine. Yes it’s a tough one to find in good shape. Ontario, Quebec, and the View attachment 233606View attachment 233607Maritimes have some other elusive 11oz beehive styles that are hard to find.

the person i bought mine from had another hard to find bee hive bottle pictured in there ad online but already sold by the time i got there , they never bothered to take the picture down though

this style fairly widely used in eastern canada so alot of different ones out there
