    I'm guessing that many (most) of those are non-USA. I only recognize one, and it's a Germann brewery. #770 (2nd row, 3rd from left) is Schmucker. https://www.beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/961/

    #553 must be German since those are the flag colors of Germany, but logic can be wrong.

    Those are tough ones that I don't have in my collection. I see the flags of France, Mexico, South Korea, Germany, Greece and Switzerland on your caps. Other than that?? :thinking_face:

    I thought a number of those caps looked like country flags, but I recognized only the German one. I wonder if some brewery put out a series of beers using flag colors of various countries on the caps.

    These are most likely part of a series of caps featuring the flags of countries participating in the soccer world championship by a German brewer. Plenty of German breweries do it for every world championship, so it's hard to say which brewery these belong to exactly. Ghana and Slovenia are in there as well.

    I was thinking the same thing, except I had the Olympics in mind.

    Yeah, I found them (with flags ones) after long time and they're called "Gaffel Kölsch" from Köln

    After long time of searching I've found most of them. Only 8 left and I really can't find them, I will add post one more time with these caps I can't find.
