Our Beer & Branding Showcase was back for its fifth year, and as expected, it masterfully mixed ice-cold beer with red-hot design.

For this event, local designers joined forces with home brewers to craft a beer that was as visually appealing as it was appetizing—and let me tell you, they totally nailed it. This year’s submissions were bigger, better, and bolder than ever (the secret ingredient may have had something to do with that…) and we’re excited to share them with you all.

So, for those of you missed it—don’t be sad, be hoppy! Below you’ll find all of the incredible 2018 Beer & Branding design submissions in one place. All that’s left to do is grab a brew (or two), kick back, and admire. Cheers!
