Coal Miner Stout
Customer: Yampa Valley Brewing Company/ task: design & Illustration
Beer description
A true working class beer, our Coal Miner Stout is satisfying but still refreshing after a hard day’s work. Roasty, dark chocolate notes add depth in flavor and color black as coal while flaked oats and barley create a full, creamy mouthfeel. Miners and craft connoisseurs alike want a coal miner stout when they take their pick!
What the design needed
quote from a technical task :
«This art will feature a small white weasel called an Ermine personified as a Coal Miner coming out of a hole covered in soot.»
I have chosen a very discreet color scheme which is all built on nuances. I wanted the label to look noble and expensive without losing craft content at the same time.
