made a few adjustments to the tail in #15

Could we see some adjustments / changes to this. We like it just like it is but would also like to see possibly some type of frame...possibly stream / tree outline all while leaving it two color like it is currently. Thanks!

Really like where you are going with this on #24. The cottonwood, cedar and pine are all native trees along the creek. Could you incorporate some cottonwood and cedar instead of all pines. Thanks!

I fixed the established date and also added more diversity in the tree line. also i have uploaded 2 options - one including the beaver/bottle character and one without it.

Thanks.

Prefer the tail #8 over #15. Also - we obviously like the two color #8 but any way to frame better or give it more of an emblem feel? Nothing extravagent - simple & clean but help make it pop.

The "Beaver View Brew Co." in #7 is terrific all by itself.

#31 - hops in top right might be too much or just to big - we can't exactly put our finger on it. #32 - no beaver character - or maybe without the bottle. Also - prefer the diagonal scroll in #31. But like the landscape on the bottom and less prominent hops accents.

Thanks. We are impressed.

Thanks for the feedback.
I have a couple questions.

Do you think you want to go the more serious route or more towards fun? The reason I ask is both the logos that you like (of mine) have great potential, but what they say are almost opposite. #8 is fun and #31 is clearly more traditional/serious. The sort of image you want to convey should be the driving factor to distinguish between the two. I'm just trying to get a feel for your 'style' so I can tune either of these to fit you best.

I'll post some revisions tomorrow morning.

Thanks.

We can see how it appears our styles are mixed. We've tried to balance and convey a fun and traditional message that could go either way (some of our beer names, Flat Tail Ale, Bucktooth Blonde, Log Jam Porter, Bitter Thicket Pale Ale). Initially we weren't sure (traditional / fun). Now we would kind of like a combination of both or blended message. We like the colors in both designs (#31 and #8). We like the font design in #8/#7. We like the river and tree background element in #31. We are thinking to dress down the border and the traditional elements of #31 with possibly a smoother less sophisticated border (possibly oval/round) and then include the more contemporary font.

#38 and #39 - a couple more - traditional oval/round shape with the more contemporary text and river scene.

Thanks! We have a few comments (before we saw #38 and #39):

Regarding the white space on #35 – We’d like to see some minor accents to fill this space - maybe Barley?

Another comment missing from previous post: Beaver Character (#37, etc.) would it be possible to see with a growler jug rather than what appears to be a wine or vodka bottle?

sure thing. i just uploaded some new versions based on your latest suggestions.

We are located in a heavily Agricultural based area - thinking would like to see a crop field (corn maybe) on the left hand side of the river/creek might be more representative of our location. It doesn't have to more prominent than the tree line, but should be identifiable as a crop field of some sort.

Thanks for the adjustments in #40 – we like the pin striping at the top next to “Est. 2010” but haven’t decided on the Barley yet – maybe it’s too fancy? If possible, one would like to see a "less feminine" barley and the other would like to see it without the barley and bringing the two outside borders a little closer to it without making it the same shape as #38 - we like the top wider than the bottom - the jog at the bottom might not be necessary.

Also - if we could see #40 with background color of #31 it would be appreciated.

From Brewer 1 (0f 2): This might be a little crazy, but what would #42 look like as a watermark background behind #47?
12 years ago
 
Logo Designer
tried to do the watermark thing as requested above....#56 i don't know if that really works though.... also in #57 i added the Albion, Nebraska.
12 years ago
 
agreed on the watermark - thanks for showing what it looks like though. Can we see #48 with the background color and Albion, Nebraska at the bottom like #57?

Thanks

sure - #58

Thanks. We are getting very close! We would also like to see #57 with different barley on the sides. We like the barley above/below "BREW CO." on #39.

Not sure if something similar is possible, but at least one of us likes the black silhouette that is 3rd from left in the 2nd row from top on the stock image at the following website:

We really appreciate the way you're working with us on our logo.

#59 updated barley

Logo Designer
one more barley option #60
12 years ago
 
Thanks - #60 can you tighten up the emblem/frame a little on #60? Keep the shape and height but narrow the frame a little? Also move the barley closer to workmark and nudge up a little.

We would also like the period dropped after "CO"

Thank you.
