Beer-Type Logos Resurrected

It’s been 7 years since my first Beer-Type Logo design, and well over 5 years since my last post on the BTL Instagram account. Has time flown by that fast? Did I forget about logos for breweries and other craft beverages? Did I stop caring? YES. No. And no… Celebrating Craft Beer Logos and Packaging […]

An Ossem Logo for an Awesome Beer! Well, it’s been a while since I created a new Beer-Type Logo. Too long! But in preparation for the opening reception of my beer logo exhibit at Hickory Museum of Art, I collaborated with Granite Falls Brewing Company to guest-brew a special release just for the event. This […]

Enduring 52 Weeks of Beer-Type Logo Designs! Week 52’s logo was somewhat of a culmination of my year-long personal graphic design project. I’ve been wanting to use the Endurest font for a few weeks now, after stumbling across it on Creative Market. In typical Beer-Type fashion, I wasn’t originally sure how or when I would […]

Not Your Typical Christmas Goose! Week 51’s Beer-Type logo design was created for the Christmas season and inspired by my friend Luke and my very own homebrewed Gose-style beer. We love gose beer (pronounced “goes-uh”)—in particular Westbrook Brewing’s Gose. So we wanted to try to brew something close. We call it “gose-style” because we didn’t […]

A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away… Oh, I’ve got the fever. That’s right, the Star Wars fever! I’m so pumped about the next saga of Star Wars I can hardly stand it. Today’s release of Star Wars Episode 7: The Force Awakens is sure to thrill movie goers of all ages, […]

Get set for a Wild Ride! Week 49’s Beer-Type logo was once again inspired by a type of beer rather than the typeface itself. I knew I wanted to create Christmas style beer logo, but not one that was over-the-top with holly berries or Santa hats. I also knew I wanted to create a stout […]

Off-farm Beers Are Good Too! Week 48. Just when I was going through my head and milling over the types of beer for which I could make a logo… a beer style I had never tried before! Enter Bloody Butcher Appalachian Grisette from Morganton, NC’s Fonta Flora Brewery, one of the more rare beer styles […]

Bold Flavors and Heaps of Hops to Warm the Soul The weather’s getting colder in North Carolina. What better way to warm up than with a nice barrel-aged barley wine! Barleywines are strong ales with high ABV (yeah, that’ll warm you up) which typically get better with age. You’d think from the name “Barley Wine” […]

A Rather Sly Beer Logo The Beer-Type logo for Week 46 came together at the 11th hour. Literally, around 11:00pm last night, I found myself redirecting what I thought was going to be a rugged, distressed Porter logo into a hand-drawn illustration built around an entirely different font. I love it when a design comes […]
