City
Star Brewing, in Berthoud, Colorado, is a small and relatively new
brewery that is quickly racking up state and national brewing awards. It
is an absolute honor to have been chosen to illustrate beer labels for their
six mainstay brews. Winner of the 2013 Colorado State Fair - Silver and 2014
US Open Beer Championship Bronze Medal is Night Watchman Stout. John
and Whitney Way, the owners of City Star Brewing, tell me that their
brewery on Main Street used to be a car dealership in the 1930's...so naturally
I honed in on my love for automobiles and illustrated a car from that
era posed in front of their brewery...thus starting a like-minded, symbiotic
relationship between artist and brewer. The stark black and tan color scheme
reflects the coffee and caramel flavors of this rich American stout.
