    A search on the word 'Beha' using an alternative crowncap website..... http://www.bottlecaps.de/db returned a result that suggests the brand is from Russia, but it gave no further details.

    Beha, a Russian beer from St Petersburg brewery Vena which is now merged with Baltika Breweries

    I saw the Beha listings on the Index, but as much as l use it for a reference I'm not entirely convinced that it is right, as I have seen mistakes on their site before and I have a vivid memory of it being from a small country not know for its beer output. But for now, l guess l will just call it Russian even though l have always had it separated from other countries. Thanks for the help!

    I've done my research and I give up. Currently trying to put together my bottle cap map. Any idea where this one is from. I drank it and tossed it in my bucket, now I have no idea. Thanks!

    That is the Dieu Du Ciel! cap, used on all their beers as far as I know.

    The red triangle is Bass. I believe it is the first trademarked logo, or something like that.

    The others I will have to explore. I'm sure others will be in with the answers in short time...

    The third one down on the left is from a German beer and begins with an 'A'. I have it and wrote the name on the back, but it got smeared, dammit! The bottom one is Fritz-Kola, a soda from from Germany. The first and second on the left (the volcanoes?) seem to be homebrew caps or something; I hope someone can confirm or deny that one.

    I think I can help with all of these caps......
    - The two that look similar (black and red varieties) are from Spain - Agua De Vilaflor S.A. and are water products
    - The red /gold cap (top row) is from Germany - Rietenaur Mineralquellen GmbH and is a water product
    - The red cap with the 3 asterisks (2nd row) is from Germany - Diageo Deutschland GmbH and is a vodka based alcocop (Smirnoff)
    - The cap with the boy/barrel image is from Germany - Brauerei Schlappeseppel GmbH and is a beer product
    - The cap with the red triangle is not from Bass & Co. It is from Germany - Apollinaris Brunnen GmbH and is a water product
    - Lastly the cap with 'M Hamburg' is from Germany - Fritz-Kola GmbH and is a soft drink product.

    For reference all of these caps can be found on the database on the following website:

    Looking at the German beer cap again, I see that the 'Schl' was part of the name that was smeared off...thanks, Andycapper! Ok, how about these?[​IMG]

    Hi SirBottlecap. You've got me this time!! I can only advise 2 of these caps. I think that the red cap with the dog facing left comes from Genesee Brewing (NY) and the brand is Wild Range IPA. The cap in the bottom left corner with 'GW' is from the Goodwill Brewing Co, Louisville, Kentucky. I am waiting for a response from another collector that I know has the 'knotted rope' cap so I will let you know when/if he emails me back with the answer. I don't know and am guessing but could the 'RH' cap come from River Horse Brewing Co (new cap maybe)? I hope you're saving duplicates of these for a future exchange. I'm stumped on the others, sorry.

    And I've just heard back from another US collector who advised me that the 'knotted rope' cap comes from Thimble Island Brewing Company, Connecticut. It comes with the same design but in a variety of different colours (at least four).

    Check out their website... http://www.thimbleislandbrewery.com

    I believe the "W" is from Wormtown Brewing in MA.
