[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
It's been so all-fired HOT here lately with 90+ temps (some like that, I know). Made me reach for one of these although I shot this in the same weather in the springtime when the drought started. There's just nothing like one of these to suck on after being on a hot roof doing shingles! I set the shot on a refurbished immigrant trunk to simulate a 'bar.' Now just picture yourself sitting right in front of it and you'll have it! I think this is the 'perfect' brewski as the head ratio to the rest of the beer is just right and the mug is frozen so the brew is just right at or just before freezing temp and it's frosty cold! (I keep one in the freezer at all times and learned the value of this from working at a Pizza Parlor [Abby's] where we had to stock them in a freezer before serving.)

pp-nothing but small crop of unwanted object on left side to keep simplicity and sharpen for upload.

In Belgium one has hundreds of types beer! Tasty

OK, I'm coming over :-).
Wonderful shot. Good composition and love the "bar".
And happy you put the glass on a coaster. Would ruin the trunk otherwise.

Cheers!
This is nicely composed and a good sharp image with good detail. All of a sudden, I feel thirsty!

Hello Gary: Nice frosty mug! I'll join in! Our drought had ended, and summer is over, but that's no deterrent.

A gentleman in a bar had to go to the bathroom. He was worried that somebody might drink his beer, so he wrote on the coaster: "I spit in my beer!"
When he got back, someone added: "I did too!"

Cheers
Otto

I can SEE how cold it is!
B-)

Hello Gary:

I suppose that you are inviting me to a beer. It is done me the mouth water al to see it so blonde, so fresh, served with the cold jug, ummm! a delight. And the fact is that the photo is so ral and well done that I have no alternative but to go to my refrigerator and to take me a beer (bottled canned) to alleviate the desire that you have caused me.

A greeting cordial friend.

Hi Gary,
Gimme this one immediately!!!!!! :)

I can see that from 12 people who commented on this photo only 4 are women. Well, I am the 5th to tell you that your beer photo is great. I worked for many years on a brewery company (I guess I can not say which brand in this site) and I am very grateful to the beer business. The glass looks very good over the wood. Nice theme and colors.
