Type the words "beer art" into Google's search engine and you end up with a lot of links to images like the one above. I don't know what I expected with a search like that, but innocent and star-y-eyed I thought to find something truly inspired. I guess I should have been shooting a lot lower.

These beautiful, artistic, beer bottles, can be credited to Beck's current ad campaign to bring "music-inspired art" to their labels, working with musicians (and artists) Ladyhawke and Hard-Fi.

(Okay, bye.)
