It is fun when I get to see these entries for the first time every autumn. The first blizzard of the season is just missing us to the south tonight but it is starting to feel Christmas around here. Think I will mull me a little something as I consider what we have received in the inbox. First, above is an entry from 2007 Grand International Winner, John Lewington of England. Is that green sign over the door directing me where to go if I really need to pee?
Fellow Engerlanders Boak and Bailey - of the surprisingly well named Boak and Bailey's Beer Blog - have sent in these eight entries. I like like the train compartment shot. I should have a category for beer and trains, too:
Max Bahnson of Pivní Filosof out of Prague is one of that happy happy tribe, those who submit entries as well as prizes. He sent in this set of six photos for your consideration:
Regular participant Patrick Hirlehey of Ontario sent in these entries with titles like "Baby Vomit Supreme," "Tempest, Saaz, Spice," and "OMG WTF DDH IPA LOL" - which code I am somewhat pleased to say I can read... but only because he told me what it meant
There you go. The first wave of entries. If no one else joins in, well, these guys get all the prizes. Do you want that? No you do not. Send in your own pics to beerblog@gmail.com. Do it.

Re the green sign over the door - no, its installed by CAMRA in case members see keg beers at the bar, they can beat a hasty retreat following the signs.

Do you need us to supply little narratives for our photos, J Peterman style? "A hint of smoke on the air, the distant sound of foghorns on the Rhine, as you slip through the bowed doorway of the Bierkeller, a rendezvous to keep...."

Feel free! The democratic realm of the comments function aches for your ripe adjectival wanderings.

I know a few guys who think that sign indicates where to make the quickest exit when it's their round.
