Blowing tail fuse after changing brake light.

I just replaced my tail light (2357) because of a broken filament and as soon as I turned the key the tail circuit fuse popped.
I checked for exposed wires or damage to the bulb socket and didn't see anything, replaced the fuse and it blew again.
I tried a standard 1157 bulb and the lights came on when I turned the key but shortly into my ride the fuse blew again.

Everything was functioning perfectly before changing the bulb so I'm having a hard time understanding the issue.

I'm going to buy a multimeter on my way home but I've never used one and would really appreciate some advice.
Or if someone has had this issue maybe you can point me in the right direction.
