Ay, me bottle o' scrumpy!
The Demoman feeling tipsy

The Bottle is the default melee weapon for the Demoman. It is a brown, opaque glass bottle of scrumpy marked with 'XXX' on the label and a year suggesting it was made in 1808.

The Bottle's critical hit animation is a swift downward swing that breaks the bottle.
