Do bottle tops set off scanner
Not that I would ever do such a thing, but do those bottle-tops on bottles of Budweiser that I might forget to take out of my pockets when I leave home for the airport, set off the metal detectors?
A 3 ounce beer might be good enough for the Chardonnay and croissant crowd, but its a bit short for me

Keep in mind that jackets (and thus, anything stuffed in pockets of said jackets) have to come off and go through the x-ray. So if you happen to forget something in your pant pockets - it might be pretty obvious as you go through.
