I don't drink beer, but that doesn't prevent me from thinking very highly of this marvelously lit shot. Belongs in a magazine! 9

Good idea, the lighting is bang on! The red seems to be a little too harsh, especially at the top of the glass at the lower part of the foam. Other than that, top image!

Wonderful lighting! I'll bet it took some work to get the glow through the liquid you wanted, and a legible label. You did a great job. Composition is also aces! If I were a member, you'd get a '10' :P

I wish the glass had fewer markups..but it's a good picture - I love backlighting.

Very nice! I know this wouldn't be easy, but if the background had a gradient from dark on the right to lighter on the left, then the bottle wouldn't fade into the background like it does here. But I really like the lighting on the mug!

Well, actually.. It is ale..

Nice concept... I like the choice of brand of beer... spiritual salvation faciitated through Abbot Ale. The backlighting works very well. I'd have liked the writing on the bottle to be a little more sharp. 8
