It is a great idea. I just wish some more attention were paid to the photography. Looks like a cruddy photoshop job.

Kinda gimmicky. Execution says more about the label than the beer though.

Maybe you could help me understand the idea here. Is it "Tall Ship. now in the bottle"?

seems pretty first thought to me. the beer is called ship. put a ship in a bottle. lacks the twist of the tobasco ship in a bottle ad from a few years ago.

Spanky nailed it. My point exactly.

It's a simple, well executed idea. Two thumbs up! And can someone please tell me why Spanky seems incapable of delivering a positive, constructive critique on anything. He's one of the most negative people I've ever come across. I'd love to see him post some of his own work so that we can see the lofty heights we should all be aiming for.

Nice. Garrison Brewing Company is a micro-brewery based in Halifax. Halifax hosts the Tall Ship Festival about once ever 3-4 years. It's a nice tie-in as I believe that Garrison's is one of the festival sponsors.

They also have a limited edition tall ship ale which is featured in the ad.
