To many, it’s just a row of bottles sitting on the shelf;
fragile yet decorative; each one ready to release its intoxicated contents into
an eager man’s stomach. Yet each bottle tells a different story about its
licensee. Why these particular bottles? Why are some grouped in stacks of three
and why are other duplicates arranged ungrouped? Have the bar staff consumed
each and every bottle and these beers are their recommendations? Or are these
rarer brews saved exclusively for a special occasion; perhaps only fetched down
when the licensee’s daughter is married? Of course, the bottles themselves also
may tell a story from their creation to their transportation and the people
involved that made it happen; each with their own tale of why they decided to
undertake this particular task. What inspired them to label their bottles that
way? And why is this picture so blurred? Is it perhaps that I've attempted to
drink them all?
