My patio was walled in some owners ago. It's not a very practical room from an objective standpoint. I put all my beer stuff in there and called it the beer room from day one. We still refer to it as the beer room, so I guess it's the beer room. Here's my logo...

The Beer Room
clean, simple, accurate.
 
McCloskeys pub!

My wife and I have always sold art and collectibles as a side-hustle, and her movie-making uncle agreed our name/logo idea sounded like money, so: Spencer Augustus. It's expanded into bookkeeping, tax prep, fine-art photography, digital printing (all things we used to do/still do before I became a full-time theology teacher); and as the biz plan fleshes out, eventually, a retirement brew-pub. We also have restaurant experience, so not totally crazy. As long as the IRS gets its cut of whatever we do every year, we don't hear any complaints about how many different things we do off that name.

Mine is Royal Oaks Brewing Company, after the name of the subdivision I live in. I did a search to see if that was taken (yep, The Royal Oak Brewery in Royal Oak, MI), but I'm keeping it. I'm never going pro, so I'm not worried about any cease and desist letters from them. I don't have a logo, but I'm stuck on a pirate theme. Art Deco or something a bit more rural, since I live in TN, are two other choices I like to look into for a logo.

OP, I like your avatar so I'd incorporate that in your logo somehow. You worked in radio, so I would definitely work that into a logo. One of my favorite album covers (and albums) is Donald Fagen's The Nightfly. Maybe you can incorporate a beer mug in place of the cigarette that's in Donald's hand or just in front of the ashtray.. The clock or clipboard in the back ground could have your brewery name. The mic might have the call letters "WBRU", "KHOP", "WBER", etc, you get the drift.

Another angle is using the old school "Radio Flyer" red wagon in your logo if you didn't want to go the Fagen route. Some many riffs on a theme of radio. Just some ideas from the top of my head.
 
Spartan's Hausbrauerei und Bierkeller.

At one time I was using Barley Island Brewing. I had gotten that off an Sam Adams calendar I had in the 90's. But later I found there was a commercial brewery in Indiana using that name. I wonder if they got it from the same calendar I did.
 
I had mentioned that my logo was a work in progress. That got me going to work on it some more. Here's the latest result. I used one of those online cartoon-me sites and used a thumbnail from one of my recent YouTube vids then just started playing around with an ancient copy of Paint Shop Pro I've had on my laptop since 2007. I'm thinking I'll reduce the size of the ellipse a bit so there's not so much empty space over and around my head (as opposed to the empty space in my head).

My avatar is my brewery name. I have an updated logo that is cleaner on a white background and I have that version my tap handles. My friend made me this logo sign from a whiskey barrel top and I have it mounted above my home bar.

I used to call mine J-Squared brewing, but I found out that the stream that runs pretty much across the street used to be called Hop Brook. It was apparently renamed back in the 1800s for the guy who was a huge landowner in town, but the name on both other town is still Hop Brook, so I figured that was a perfect name for it.
I later found out that someone down the street who is a beekeeper calls it Hop Brook Apiary, so it still works out.
 
My home brewery is named after Saint Winfrid Boniface, who is one of the patron saints of brewers. Winfrid came as a missionary from England to Germany. I mostly brew English style ales, which are by far and large not very popular here in Germany, so a lot of missionary work has to be done. Therefore the name.
I also decided to use Anglo Saxon to give the whole thing a more "epic" look and feel. Behold:

some of my brews:

9 finger stout

misty mountain stout

keep it safe ale

the shire's lager

baggins's old mead

all tolkien references

im not even a huge fan it just works out well for the labels.


you get the idea
Just had a double IPA from a local brewery called "Bow to No One" with a pic of the 4 hobbits. Since it's my favorite movie(s) it really speaks to me!

I can post a pic of the can art if you are interested
 
No name, and I do not name my beers either. I do make paper labels using InDesign but they just say what kind of beer and brew info like “Porter / Brew No. 74 / November 25, 2022.” Oh, and I only bottle, kegging and maintaining everything is too big of a pain in the ass considering I drink it all and almost never more than one per evening. I have some inventory I have been cellaring for three years (and one bottle of stout for 21 years — had two and opened one on its 50th anniversary, brewed the night my oldest son was born. It was,terrible.

Fr_Marc, it appears that you, @RevA, and I are holding down the traditional role of the clergy in brewing. For my brewery name, though, I lean toward my hobby of being a sailor.

Remolding my basement, my wife I insisted I add a brew room! The pics are my brew room door, not installed yet and my logo on beer glasses! Our lives include adventures from backpacking to travel from western mountains to other countrys, hence, the brew room is our next adventure!!
