The Art of Beer: ABCs of Beer Bottle Art

Art of Beer celebrates the intoxicating world of beer bottle art. Based on a private collection four decades in the making, the book features more than 200 labels from nearly 100 brewers around the world, including Stone, Deschutes, Sqauatters, and more.

You don't have to love beer to enjoy this book. But if you do love beer, you're sure to find many of your favorites represented here.

Get this book. It's the most fun you can have without actually drinking the beers!

Art of Beer is a fascinating intersection of photography and foam. Beer lovers will thrill to rediscover favorites such as Holy Grail Ale, He'Brew, and Hoppy Face side-by-side for the first time. And art lovers will revel in the unexpected complexities of these tiny canvases. Simply put, Art of Beer is next-level beer-bottle portraiture, combined with original coastline photography, and set to the rhythm of a rhyme: A heady mix. Please enjoy responsibly.

Kate Wilcox didn’t set out to be a beer bottle art enthusiast. You could say she married into it. A native Oregonian, Kate studied Art and English at Principia, a small (and sadly beer-free) liberal arts college near St. Louis, Missouri.  On the way home from college, she stopped in Utah and found romance on three fronts: the mountains, rivers, and redrock canyons of the Behave State; the burgeoning intermountain craft beer community; and a certain bottle collector who is finding it increasingly difficult to remain anonymous. The latter of the three eventually brought her to the central coast of California, where she keeps busy as a writer, photographer, and beer-bottle art lover.
