Thank you for this opportunity

Kent

Kent,

Thank you. The designs look great. Do you think that you can develop a design that incorporates some grain and more natural looking hops? Let me know what you think. Thanks in advance.

I would be happy to do that. I've always been interested in beer art. I had a beer can collection (3000 cans) as a kid in Indiana. I had to sell most of it when I moved to Florida but I still have 500 and shelves from a library that closed. With your feedback I'm sure I can make an identity you'll be proud of.

Thank you
Kent

I have another one I'm going to submit when I get home with an axe in the background. My father in law grew up in Kentucky and family made beer and moonshine
He would have been 100 next year

Thanks again
Kent

Kent,

Sounds awesome dude! I would be interested in any bootlegging and moonshine type design that you come up with. You defiantly have talent. Thanks again.

Wylie

Thank you Wylie! I won't be home till later this evening, unless I can swing by at lunch.

Take care
Kent

Kent,
The axes look cool. I just had a thought. What about mash paddles instead of axes? Just an idea. Let me know what you think.

Wylie

Hi Wylie,

That sounds great. I'll try that when I get home tonight. Ran home to get this one up

Have a great day

Kent

Kent,

No worries man. Get to it when you have time. I can wait to see what you come up with.

Wylie

Thanks. Really want to be your designer for this project

Kent,

I really like the new design. It is awesome. One last design idea. I am in-versioning the law abiding citizen who desires the allure of the "lawless" home brewing lifestyle(although home brewing beer is legal in all 50 states). One who has a sense of independence, pride, and craftsmanship that desires something handcrafted and unique. An individual who understands that homemade quality and variety is unsurpassed and as unique as they are. Brewing is a challenge as much as it is a pastime. Someone who is proud to share their accomplishments with their family and friends. Let me know what you think. Thanks man.

Wylie

Hey Wylie,
That is a great way of looking at it. Do you watch the FoodNetwork? I remember an episode on Alton Brown's Good Eats where he was showing the process of making beer at home. I can imagine the next day after airing people were running out buying everything needed.

I'll try to find a way to demonstrate that without being over the top. I'm all ears if you have any requests.
Thanks again
Kent

Kent,

Just a little more description for you. Most home brew store that I have seen are basically the same. Small store front in a strip mall. A sign out front with some grapes and hops. Inside the basic inventory of ingredients and equipment. I was just looking for something a little out of the box. Something that catches the eye, makes people take a second look, and sets a theme. Brewing in this country has a rich tradition and following probation it wasn't until 1978 that home brewing was made legal again (the last state didn't legalize until 2013). Thankfully craftsman broke the law to keep the tradition, craft, and lifestyle alive. Just thought that I would play around with that idea a little. Hope this helps. Thanks.

Hi Wylie,

Sorry I didn't get more posted. My daughter wasn't feeling very good.
Still thinking on how to incorporate that idea.

I did have some slogans or additional text.

Your Style Your Taste

Brew the Beer you want to Drink

and parts of things you said "keep the tradition, craft and lifestyle alive"

Thanks again
Kent

Hope you like my latest entries.

Thank you

Kent

Thought you might love #113

Is there anyway to add "Homebrewing Supplies" to #111? Also maybe add some green? Thanks man.

Just an idea what if the hop was green and the area around the creek? That would retain some symmetry in the center. Feel free to let your imagination run free. You have been awesome so far so I am not worried. Thanks.

Of course can. I won't be home till after it enters judging phase. At that time the design in first can upload entries. Thank you so much

Still at my business till about 2:00 est
Hope you still consider choosing my design

Thanks again
Keny

Kent,

No worries man. I certainly think that you will be in the top 5.

No that it is in judging only first place can submit.
Did you still want to see the requested revisions?
I'll be heading home soon and will make them ASAP

Thank you

Hi Wylie,

I have several variations made of color and the additional text. I'd love to show you when you have a chance to place my design in first.

Thanks again
Kent

Kent,

I would love to see the designs because I know that they are awesome. Not sure how to go about that now.

You can rotate designers into first place then if you wish change to another.
Thank you

You don't have to choose a designer just place them in first for now. I have several ready to upload.
I'll check back later to see if I'm in first.

Thanks again
Kent

Kent,

No problem man. I look forward to seeing what you have. Sorry about the delayed response. I am also in the military and I just pulled a 24hr security detail. I probably should be sleeping now but you guys deserve my feedback. I really appreciate all of the hard work. Thanks again man.

Wylie

Thank you for putting me in first and thank you for your service.
Of course I'll make all the modifications and variations to get you the perfect logo.

I'll post the ones I made last night now.

Take care
Kent

Kent,

I really appreciate all of your hard work on this project. I have taken the last week to thoughtfully evaluate all logo submissions, particularly the top 5 entries. I have consulted friends, family, and colleagues and taken their opinions into consideration. I will select a winning design in the next few hours. If you are not selected would it be possible to purchase one or more of your designs? Again thank you for all of the hard work, passion, and thought that you put into this contest. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks again.

Wylie

Hi Wylie,

Of course I would be willing to sell my designs to you. I really enjoyed working with you on this and hope to do more with you in the future.

Take care
Kent

If you do decide you'd like one or more of my designs you can write me here or email me.

Thanks again
Kent
