lol you must of been in the nectar sectar!!!!
 

that's a cool looking bottle
 

Probably a diamond shape on the botttom of the bottle meaning it was an Owens Illinios bottle . It should have a couple of numbers on it as well. One number is the plant the bottle was made and the other the year. He is correct,,, probably about 1950's

Hello GoodLord,

It was made by Brockway Glass Co. somewhere in the 1940-1955 period.

"B in a circle………Brockway Machine Bottle Company (1907-1933); Brockway Glass Company (1933-1988), Brockway, Pennsylvania. “B in a circle” mark was first used in 1925. In 1964, 10 of the 12 Hazel-Atlas Glass Co. plants were acquired. Brockway eventually had (at one time) up to 16 different plant locations. In 1973, (besides the Brockway PA plant), factories were located at Muskogee, OK; Lapel, IN; Crenshaw, PA; Freehold, NJ; Parkersburg, WV; Washington, PA (2 plants); Rosemount, MN; Zanesville, OH; Montgomery, AL; Ada, OK; Oakland, CA and Pomona, CA. Brockway Glass was purchased by Owens-Illinois, Inc. in 1988, and the Brockway, PA plant is currently [2005] in operation as Owens-Illinois’ plant #18." GLASS MANUFACTURERS' MARKS ON BOTTLES

You didn't mention the dimensions. Bottle diggers call these slicks, due to the lack of embossing.
