Beer Labels and Mascots
🕑 Added 2020-07-30 16:00:04 +0000 UTCOne of my former roommates took it upon himself to learn beer brewing at home. I. of course, was an enthusiastic supporter of this endeavor. I helped finance some of it and also designed labels for the beer. He made a beer called "Dogbolter" (for which there was no label) and later made "Pooch Hooch", and I made this label. I worked at Kinko's Copies at the time so it was easy for me to run a few labels on sheets of sticker paper and cut them & bring them home to apply to the bottles. The dog features was his own Chow-Lab mix, Niamh. She (the dog) sometimes aided in taste testing the result, which... in reality you should not give dogs booze.
The next beer label I made was for "Cherry Beer", which had mashed cherries in the brew to add some flavor. I designed the label and arranged it in this four-place manner to run on sheets of sticker paper, resulting in 4 labels per sheet.
The back of the "Cherry Beer" label.
My old Engineer company toyed with the idea of an official mascot. All sorts of ideas were floated, but people really seemed to like my Anime-inspired mascot, "Bichi", pronounced "Bitchy". Probably more like "Beeshee", really, to avoid getting in *too* much trouble.
This was going to Bichi in an M-113 "Track" APC. In the long run the mascot idea went nowhere but I was glad to have given my part for the greater good.
That's it for now! More to come later.
