1601 Brew Co. - a lot f people think it is a throw back to colonial times like Sam Adams or Thomas Hooker....But actually when i reserved the name there as 1600 active breweries in the country...active only..so i took 1601...why not...
 
I came up with FULL IRON BREWING because my other hobby is doing full distance ironman races and there's nothing better than a good beer after 100+mi training day.
 
When I restarted brewing towards the end of 2014, I decided on Time for 9 Brewing. It couples two of my biggest passions, brewing and college basketball.

First person to guess the significance gets a big old "Congratulations" from me.
 
Nomofett Brewing-
I teach English in Japan and the name is a name that a student made up that I thought was clever.. "Nomo" is the local dialect (Kansai) for "Nomou" Which is like an invitation to drink.. Nomo= "Let's Drink"
"Dachi" means friend, but the more correct way to say it is "Tomodachi" so combining those two gives you "Nomodachi" My student said it's what he calls his drinking friends.
The picture is a picture a kid left at a restaurant I used to work at. My moms a Childrens artist and I have 9 nieces and nephews so a good amount of my beers will use kids art, cause kids art is like what I think brewing should be.

Time for 9 is a reference to Kentucky having 8 NCs. You will likely need to change it to Time for 10 in a few months, BTW.

:ban: :tank:

I believe I'd like to share a Sweetwater with you. Spent plenty of time in Alpharetta when I was with GE. Always enjoyed the Sweetwater on tap at Mellow Mushroom. Nothing beats a trip to Catlanta.
 
I FINALLY came up with a name for my Brewhaus!

"Silent Sailor Brewing"

It is based off of the saying "Loose Lips, Sink Ships." I am a US Merchant Mariner so it fits with us as s*** talking sailors! Plus that saying is TRUE, I have seen plenty of sailors go down from talking to much. So I am a "Silent Sailor" aka I keep my mouth shut and sail on!
 
I want to eventually get going with m00ps brewing, courtesy of George Costanza and have a Festivus holiday ale
 
shoot mine is boring I guess. Im going with SJB the first letters from the town I live in. But I do have a "recycle IPA" came up with recipe and recycled cans and bottles to pay for ingredients
 
Beechwood Brewery --- We live on Beechwood Dr. so the name was easy. My fiancee's friend is a director of art for some fancy women's magazine in LA and she's made us some sweet logos so far!
 
I call mine Slippery Slope Brewing...

The name came about because I get consumed by my hobbies when I should be studying for an exam or something...
 
Breach Heaven Brewing

Being a Combat Engineer in the US Army, I wanted to name my brewing in remembrance of falling combat engineers. In some of the prayers I have heard for these soldiers with this MOS, the last line stated is "Breach Heaven Sapper." Took it from there.
 
Crutch brewing is the name.

When we started our first brew the only thing we could find long enough was the bottom end of an old crutch. Hense crutch brewing
 
Our homebrewery, MTheads, is from SWMBO and my last names, M and T. We pronounce it "empty-heads". We imagine a label with a cartoon guy with his skull cut open, no brain inside, and him pouring a mug of beer in his empty head and a tagline along the lines of "Fill your head with something good."

At least, that's the idea.

Granted, for lack of any artistic talent I'm still without a label with the empty-headed guy, so I've opted for a theme of pretty girls for my labels. ;)
 
Square1 Homebrews...

I have built a few different systems.. converted coolers, Brutus10, etc. But after I sold my Brutus10 I went for a year and a half or so without brewing.

Once I started up again I basically had to start from Square1.. with both my equipment and my skill set.
 
I do IRONMAN triathlons and all kinds of stupid stuff so mine is IRONMAN BREWERY. What better thing but to drink my own beer after a hard day of training!

I do as well, named mine Full Iron Brewing. I agree, nothing better than a nice cold beer after a long training day.
 
I finally settled on 4Stringer Brewing Works. I play bass guitar and ukulele, both four stringed instruments, so that's that.
My best friend and I brew together on his bigger setup and call it Gremmie HomeBrewing, from Pearl Jam's song Gremmie Out Of Control about a noob surfer.
 
Bald bastard brewery... Because I am Bald... Bastard just fit although I am sure some would call me that...
 
Strike-Slip Brewing Company is the name I'm using.

I'm a seismologist whose work is primarily focused on California. The plate boundary in California is such that most of the major faults - the San Andreas Fault and others that branch off of it - are strike-slip faults. (That is, one side moves past the other horizontally, not vertically.)

I've been naming my beers after individual faults, so I wanted to use a brewery name that fit the collective scheme.
 
I've got mine sorted:
Beer Crusades Brew co./Brewery

I've even got a small blog on my mis-adventures in my signature for anyone interested.

the idea behind the name is simpole, my local sport team are the crusaders, and our region here wear red and black and it is very well known in the country. Christchurch New Zeland btw.

Have a read. cheers.
 
So I have a friend at work who is a graphic designer. Ever since I started homebrewing he had been telling me that if I could think of a brewery name he would make me a logo. I'm really bad at coming up with names, so I never figured anything out.

One day he was talking șhit about me, as he frequently enjoys doing. He was telling another co-worker that my beers were unsanitary. That they were brewed in a shed with barn cats puking into them. As soon as he said that we both looked at each other and knew that had to be the name. A few days later he came up with this:
