Why do you have a brewery name?

[kenpotf]

I've been toying around with the idea of a brewery name, but I'll never do this professionally/large scale. I noticed that many of you have brewery names attached to your signatures. Why do you have them? One thought that I had was for competitions, but I could be off....

Thanks!

It's just part of the fun. I named my brewery/man cave after my dad's old CB handle,White Cougar Brewery.

If anything competitions usually ask for club names. Brewery names are kind of like avatars, just something fun to identify with.

Why not?

Why stop at a brewery name? I've got a Facebook page, t-shirts, and stickers!

My wife has a vinyl cutter and a heat press, so it's easy to make something up real quick like.

It's mostly just for fun though. No real plans to actually open a brewery. Plus, my brewery name ties into my other 'hobby'...old VW's.

Check it out....look for 'Green Bus Brewing' on Facebook (like the page while you're there).

Just for the banter! Hell, I even name my cars!

As mentioned, for fun ..... and because our late-great pug was awesome and a damn fine brew-dog.

Thanks everyone! It's good to know that it wasn't just me thinking about having one for absolutely no reason at all Now I have to come up with one....

I have a name for my brewery...Two Trees Brewing. People want to have a name associated with what they are drinking and not just "some guy's homebrew". I also sell t-shirts with my logo and have a facebook page to keep people interested in what I am doing. Of course someday I would like to have a small brewery but for now this works really well.

The closest I've gotten is using my little brewery's name in a dystopian sci-fi story I'm nearly finished writing the first draft of. Good enough for me.

I had a name for my brewery. Then a real brewery opened up with that name. I should have sent them a cease and desist letter.

my wife & I name everything. our cars, computers, pets... we even named our kids!

I've only ever been given one nickname so Buffalo Joe is what I'd call my brewery.

Are you sure this wasn't inspired by an older, flirty, single lady friend?

My brewery has a name because one of my daughters bought me a Christmas present a few years back: a wooden six-pack holder with "Washington Street Brewery" laser-cut into the wood. Since I live on Washington Street, I figured it was a good name.

In my day,"cougar" wasn't a catch-name for a swinger. But we did have a fine looking Italian lady down the end of our little block when I lived at home. She liked nude sun bathing on her lil back porch. HOORAH! Back then,anyway,a cougar was a big ol' kitty.
