Sunday Stamps | Beer

Today's theme in Sunday Stamps is Food &/or Drink

Maybe beer is not the best choice during the cold months, but these stamps are two favourites of mine.

    1. The person who sent it, wrote that she didn't like the stamp. But it's one of my favourites, and better in person. It really looks like a beer!

    2. I find it simple yet striking. I'm also entertained that beer standards were high on the list of priorities 500 years ago, rather than say civil rights :)

    4. Certainly nowadays; food purity should always be a priority.

  3. A nice combination, I like the merry-go-round concept. Your choice might be what is called a winter warmer for the cold months, usually dark beers, I think it refers to the alcohol content rather than temperature of the beer.

    1. I didn't know that "winter warmer" concept. I would associate the beer rather with the summer & sun.
