Brewery Name

[Lilrascal]

Well I got my fist batch of brew in my primary fermenter. It may be early in my brewing hobby, but the wife has been bugging me to come up with a name. We have a 5lb Yorkie do that we adore (I know a real manly dog). We were thinking of the name Dinky Dog Brewing. What do people think? I know there are lots of names with the word dog in them, but I couldn't find any reference to a Dinky Dog Brewing on here or google. Just looking for feedback.

I like it.

 

[Lilrascal]

I like it.

Thanks. I was thinking if I do go with that, maybe a logo with some type of small dog holding a large beer. If I get that far I would probably hire Coy to do the work, as I do not have those type of skills/creativity!

I use to have a yorkipoodle and they are REAL manly (as long as no one see's you with it) LOL..

I actually like the name it be cool for a real cartoony image w/ big eyes looking half wasted. lol..

and BrewBrand Creative would love to do the logo for ya.

use dinkydog and make a graphic of a tiny dog drinking out of a bottle cap.

Dinky Dog Brewing...I like it! A tiny dog wearing a bottle cap hat and some "drunk bubbles" would be pretty cool for a logo...kinda like a dinky dog equivalent of a lampshade!

 

[homeslice]

I got your catch slogan
"Don't Dink, Drink!" or "Dink before you Drink!"

 

[JakeTheHopDog]

Anything with "Dog" in the name works for me.

Dinky Dog makes me think of "Dinky Di" dogfood, from the 2nd Mad Max movie. I like the idea of a tiny dog sitting next to a really BIG beer. I think Jake is on to something here... Like 1 of those "teacup" breeds sitting next to a big liter sized frest stein full of beer, maybe with some foam running down the outside... Or maybe the dog can DRINK From the stein <LOL>

Well Dinky Dog Brewing it is!!! You guys have come up with some great ideas. I am pretty sure I will be contacting Brew Brand Creative to design some type of logo. Don't be afraid to keep the ideas coming. Thanks again.

 

[JakeTheHopDog]

Don't know if yours is like a buddy of mines, but that little thing yaps all day long. You could name your first beer "Dinky Dog Yapper Ale".

That would be a great logo.

I like it. She only yaps if someone walks by the house, or wants to play, guess that is most of the day!!! LOL

...She...yaps...most of the day!!!

Yep, "Dinky Dog Yapper Ale".

PM sent to Coy about possibility of logo design.

I know I am ahead of myself since I haven't even drank my first batch yet, but I can tell you I already have the bug.

It's cute and all, but not very original. A lot of people who name their brews, name it after their dog....or street.

It's time to start an aquarium fish naming movement.

We are always looking forward to working with new people.. Can't really call them clients since we are in contact continously and become more like friends throughout the process.

I've almost finished off my first batch and really need to start another just can't decide what I want to make yet. LOL

I've never named fish before but maybe this will make yo feel better.

The man's not lying, folks. Coy and Josh have been working on a logo for me for a few weeks and its been great. I'll be sure to post it and sing their praises when we get a final version, but to all those on the fence...send them a message and put them to work!

+2 on that!

awww shucks guys.

Thanks

LOVE the Mad Fish logo!!!!!!

 

[Lilrascal]

I have contacted Brew Brand Creative to design my logo. I am still open to ideas and suggestions regarding the logo. Feel free to toss anything out there. Also will eventually need a slogan, though that may be easier to think of once I see the logo.

I'll be working on some sketches this weekend. I've been getting some other work finished up.

"The dog is dinky, the beer isnt"

No problem. I am looking forward to the logo, I am sure it will be great based on your guys previous ones!!!

 

[Lilrascal]

"The dog is dinky, the beer isnt"

I like that!!! Keep em' coming.....

 

[coy]

Here is a first concept.. Went with a puppy look instead of the older long haired Yorkie's
it would get some adjustments when it's in illustrator like giving better depth perceptions and things like that.

Let me get your thoughts.

 

[Lilrascal]

Thanks to Coy for posting his sketches for my brewery logo. I had asked that we post it here because I think it is great to get the collaboration of the forum. You guys always have great input (I am not very creative at all).

My initial thoughts are:

1. Not sure if I like the bottle cap on the head.
2. Like the mischievous look like he got into trouble and spilled the beer.
3. Not sure about the spilled beer only because it would be yellow and mauy look like the dog just peed !! LOL
4. Like the puppy cut , as this is how our dog is.

What are others thoughts/ideas.

Thanks again coy for taking on my logo project!!!

we could color the spilled beer to be an amber color with some yellow highlights around the pup to look like he pee'd in the beer. LMAO.. That would take care of #3.. cause when my pup got into trouble he would get nervous and pee. hahahaha

But serously, we could always take the spill out of the vectored image if it doesn't look or feel right.
Kinda like I did with the Boiler Maker image.

I have this idea in my head of a drunk looking brown and white Chihuahua with a beer belly sitting up against a wall, looking drunk as hell. It'd also be holding/hugging the huge beer mug next to it. The proportions of the dog to beer in the sketch are perfect, though!
