User:Wingman4l7/Beer logo gallery

These are the logos of microbreweries that I have uploaded to Wikimedia. Almost all are from the respective company's official Twitter account profile image (with the exception of the Moonlight Brewing Company, which has no Twitter account as of this writing).

Why Twitter? I'll admit that it seemed quite ridiculous at first to resort to Twitter profile images to get a brand's logo. You'd think that a company would have a background-free, standalone digital image of their logo available on their website somewhere, for journalists to use in articles or press-releases, if nothing else. However, that was not the case. Twitter turned out to be the most reliable way to get an up-to-date, quality copy of a company's logo. Go figure.

(Sorry, but apparently these can't be in a gallery as Wikipedia policy prohibits the display of non-free images in userspace as per WP:NFCC)

Use justification:

The image is used to identify the brand NAME, a subject of public interest. The significance of the logo is to help the reader identify the brand, assure the readers that they have reached the right article containing critical commentary about the brand, and illustrate the nature of the brand in a way that words alone could not convey.
