Celebrate International Beer Day ~ A Photo/Video Homage

Last updated on September 24, 2020

As if we needed another excuse to crack open a few cold ones, it’s International Beer Day (held on the first Friday of August each year)!

To celebrate, I’m sharing some photos and a short film I created from a project I collaborated on with the Gower Brewery, who make ‘ales of outstanding natural beauty’ right on my doorstep here in South Wales, UK.

Note to all the other beautiful brewers out there: I offer my photography and videography services on a freelance basis and have a special interest in real beer – contact me at ben@driftwoodjournals.com to tell me what you need.
