Two Rooks Brewery logo

I thought I would share how brilliant a designer my husband is (not to mention that he's a great brewer, too!). Here is the logo he designed for our brewery:

I can hardly wait to see it on labels.

That's very clever! When reading the title of the post, I wondered if you were going with rook-bird or rook-chess piece, so it's great that the design incorporated both. Well done!

Glad you like it. Both chess and birds have some significance to us, so we thought "Two Rooks" fit well. A lot of the names we are using for our beverages refer to one or the other. For example:

• King's Indian Pale Ale
• Stark Raven Mead
• Sweet Blackbird Stout

We also have some beer names in reserve to use when the occasion calls for it:

• Northern English Defense
• End Game (Old Ale)
• Passed-out Pawn (Porter)
• Dubbel Rook Sacrifice
• Pawn Marzen
• Fowl Play IIPA
• Early Bird Saison
• California Common Titmouse
• House Sparrow Ale
• Birdbrain Barleywine

Love it, especially the font!

I always love his font choices, too; he is amazing with display typography.

The typography is great!

Starting with a 1 color logo is always the best way to go.

I'm sitting here looking over the label, thinking that I should try to find some kind of critique, or something negative to tell you to work on, but I can't find a thing. Love the logo, love the bird and the chess piece. Really like the beer names too. Great job.
