    100 Gallons!??!

    Well what do you think are the chances of each and every bottle popping it's top on the way from the store and needing to be recapped.... :) maybe you should buy a lottery ticket too! :D

    100 Gallons!??!

    Why don't you bottle some in bottles with the commercial labels still on - then you can just say "I bought all that in a shop" :)

    I think I've finally got it...

    i agree with jester, there is a lot of brick. have you considered making it portrait rather than landscape? or you could fuzz up the bricks a bit...

    Tell me if you do this!!!

    Hey Seefresh, where in Germany are you? Can you get to Eindhoven easily? There's a place (possibly a chain) called " 't Drankurgels" (the 't is abbreviated from 'Het' = dutch 'the') and they have loads and loads of belgian beers, and the glasses to go with them..... can give you directions to...

    Fuggledowns Ginger Beer

    I used a path, and typed around the path. Photoshop was used last night, usually gimp. Basically I selected the 'inner' gradient - blue through white, inside the blue border. Then grew the selection by a bunch of pixels - 30? 40? can't rememeber. In the 'paths' palette I made it into a 'work...

    Dry-Hemping

    The Porterhouse in Dublin did a Hemp beer a while back. Obviously without all the goodness, but with the aroma of walking through Amsterdam. I quite liked it. Brought back memories of my time spent living in Holland

    first label what do u think?

    maybe even fainter, almost the same grey as the text showing your edit time in the post if you can find that - Last edited by poison2003 : Today at <GREY TEXT HERE>

    first label what do u think?

    I like it, but I'd maybe change the stripes to grey rather than black, might be a bit less 'buzzy' on the eyes..

    RTW Beer Label Collection

    Actually that's one of the misplaced ones - it's Malaysian, couldn't fit it into the SEAsia one, and went to malayisa after NZ so figured I'd put it there!.Same as the Barons. It's the guinness export, ~8% or so, i have had this before in Dublin, lovely. Can't compare to the draught stuff...

    RTW Beer Label Collection

    they didn't seem to want to curl thankfully. i made sure to get the whole label off where possible, not just the top surface - maybe that helped. some of them in SEA and China just slide off cos of the condensation. The Squires ones took a lot of persuasion. I just dried them out flat and put...

    RTW Beer Label Collection

    never thought of that. next time perhaps. was tough getting some of them off. some slide rigt off, others like the Wanaka Beerworks and Emersons are actually STICKERS not labels, and they don't like coming off. Developed all sorts of ways of getting labels off. The stickers I found come off...

    RTW Beer Label Collection

    Not sure if this is the best place, but as good as any perhaps... As some of ye know I was away off on a round the world trip in 2006. I collected (almost) all the beer labels from the new beers I tried on the way, and have made a collage of them. You can see them here...

    I'm not complaining mind you but...why no headaches?

    You're just not drinking enough. I made a keg for a party and indulged in quality control exercise of having one beer for everyone someone else had - just to be sure that the quality was still good. It was a 20l keg, i mus'tve had 9 litres of it myself. hangover from hell. course it could have...

    No smoking debate

    Well for what it's worth, in Ireland about 2 or 3 years ago a ban was introduced on smoking in ALL workplaces - pubs, restauraunts, offices - everywhere. I think there were 3 exceptions: Prisons, Mental Hospitals and the (smoking-allocated) bedroom of a hotel (however if you want room service to...
