Traquair House Brewery bottles on display in the brewery shop.

White Rajah IPA from The Brew Kettle Taproom and Smokehouse in Strongsville, OH. Easily one of the best IPAs I’ve ever had. You should have one too.

Camden Brewery recently announced their bold new branding. They worked with a Colorado-based company that had worked with Utah's Uinta Brewery and the result is certainly striking. This shot was taken a few weeks at the brewery whilst the labelling was still being finalised.

The beer cage at the rear of 57 Thomas Street where all the best bottled beers are stored.

A bottle of 2010 Barrel Aged Marshal Zhukov's Imperial Stout from Cigar City Brewing. A fantastic beer. In the background is can of Surly Coffee Bender.

Honestly one of the best American IPAs I've had in ages. If you are ever near Ohio, pick yourself up a bottle of this from the brewery. Strong simcoe notes in the nose and perfect bitterness. Two thumbs up! Thanks to Bob (and his wife!) for the gift of this bottle. Photo taken at the Hoppy Daze festival at Monty's Krown in Rochester, NY.

Bottles of New Holland Brewing Dragon's Milk wait to be opened for tasters at the 2010 Great American Beer Festival. This is a very tasty ale that is aged in oak barrels.

Maine Beer Company Zoe. A deliciously hoppy amber beer. Maine Beer Company is a tiny microbrewery in...Maine. This beer is very highly sought after and well rated on Beer Advocate. Recommend you try them out if you are ever near Portland, Maine.

To celebrate the launch of the new Brew Dog pub in Aberdeen, here's a shot of some bottles of their latest beer - Bashah Reserve 2009 - a Collaborative brew between Stone Brewing Co. and BrewDog . The labels were drawn by Johanna Basford.

Fast moving hands on the bottling and packaging line at Left Hand Brewing Company in Colorado. Looks like they are packaging up some 400 lb Monkey. Yum!
