Looks great!
The brown layer that you mentioned shows as grey on my computer though.

yeah, it's kind of more 'taupe...'

Great work as always, Thorsten. It has a kind of guitar shape, more so with the layer.

Yes, nice work.

Unfortunately, here in the good ol USA, we cannot drink outside in public such as your subject is.

(guess it has something to do with that 'freedom' thing (?))

Actually, in New Orleans public drinking is mandatory.

"Boy, do my eyes deceive me or do you not have a goddamn drink in your hand?!"

"Sorry officer but I'm heading over to get a Hurricane right now."

"Son, you better run your ass straight on over there cuz if I catch you walking around here again without so much as goddamn sorry ass pina colada in your clammy little hands I'm gonna run you in!"

"Yes sir officer. Thank you sir!"

Love that town! :D

Yeah, a friend from there told me about the drive thru daiquri stands and "to go" cups. Bong is just frustrated because he lives behind...THE ORANGE CURTAIN!

Thanks, glad you like it!

@ Johnny Dollar: Well, I like Paulaner the most! :wink: AND it's the most popular Weizenbeer in Germany...

Well yeah I know that people aren't allowed to drink in public in the US...weird...

TB

Very nice design!

What rhymes with morning?

Oh, and nice design.

Except in New Orleans... they seemed to encourage it there last time I visited.

Nawlins & Vegas, plus can't you get a "Go Cup" in Hot-lanta? And up to a few years ago you could drink & drive in Texas, you just couldn't drive drunk.

I remember crossing Texas along I10 & I40, stopping in drive-thru liquor stores for Lone Star, switching drivers when you got too drunk... :D Good times!

This discussion reminds me of a product idea I came up with: Brown Bag Ale.

The idea is it's beer sold in a bottle but comes already inside of a brown bag with a strand of twine around the neck keeping the bag on. Perhaps there's a "Remove before drinking" tag on the neck too that describes what it is. The idea is it is THE beer for drinking outdoors becuase it is already bagged for avoiding (some) open container laws in the US.

Kind of a gimmicky but fun idea that you could sell in liquor stores near colleges ....

Some beaches here in Florida allow public drinking. At least they used to. When I lived over in Pinellas County I remember that you could drink on Clearwater Beach as long as you were north of the pier. When I lived on Sunset Beach on Treasure Island you could drink on the beach as long as you didn't have glass containers. I've also been to "festivals" (art/food/jazz etc) in downtown St Pete, Ybor City and Clearwater where they sold cups of beer and wine for public drunkeness. A few weeks ago I was in downtown Sanford on a Saturday morning and they were having some kind of mini-Mardi Gras and they had a beer truck out. We actually have quite a bit of public drinking around Florida now that I think about it! Can't hold a candle to 'Nawlins though.
