I like what you've done with #36. However, I would still like to see what the logo would look like with the bottom section of #18 and without the wavy lines (i.e. solid color background like that of above the ribbon). The word "Brewing Company" in the selected font, may be hard to read. Could the font be changed somehow to be a little easier to read?
Also, I wonder if a hop vine instead of the oak branch would look good in this area.
What do you think?
