173 - Brewathlon again!

Fun times! Gonna get your beer on! Playing around with some colors and texts for this years Brewathlon flyer. Anyone got any critiques? Criticisms? Colloquialisms? Crumpets?

70 or 1-1-11 the binary day

And as we start a new year I start things off the right way by getting going on Simian things. The Simian Brewing Company of Nampa, Idaho will soon be the greatest brew house in the northwest. But if I'm going to help that happen I have a fair amount of art to create. So here's were we start. One simple idea for a label template, with 2 variations on that theme. Once I nail down a template then the real fun will start. Marvin Kinney, brewer-owner-operator of Simian Brewing Company has already crafted a large slate of beers and now that he is reproducing them and refining the recipes the time has come for unique labels for each special flavor of Simian.

Just you wait and see...

55 - Party today!

It is time for a house warming bar-b-q! Beer and brauts, chips and dips. The yard is mowed and the grill is ready, still got a couple of things to put on shelves but after that we are ready to go. If your are reading this you are welcome to stop by. The beer is being provided by Simian Brewing Company, best beer in the Treasure Valley, I'm gonna get me some.
Have a great weekend all!

54 - Simian goes international!

So sweet! The shirt I designed for Simian Brewing Company of Nampa, ID was spotted on a patron field tasting ESB's in the UK! Thanks to Ian Barkley for taking my artwork international.

52 - Simian is alive and well...

The tasting this weekend at Brewforia seemed to be a rousing success. I personally had few cups of some great beer. The new t-shirts and hats sold well and everyone seemed to really enjoy the beer, which was of course the point. But before we get to the new stuff how about we take a look at the first Simian Brewing Company t-shirt design. It was nice but ended up needing some adjustments. The print of this first shirt lead to the redesign of the logo and the nice new shirts.
