LOL!

The original abbreviation was suggested by a fellow brewer, 'Screwtop,' and the pronunciation we started with and still use is the one word, 'Buy-Ab.' So, that's the original version if that is any help Lylo.

With all the world's different accents though, who knows what it might sound like? :P
