I've gone for something very traditional looking - if you had something else in mind just let me know, I'm happy to work on this for you, beer is a subject very close to my heart :)
We like # 12 the best but could you modify as follows?
~ Change "The" and "Beer" from cursive to match the font of "Junction" ~ remove the connection between the "e" and the "c", but still open to finding another way to join the words, but not in a road form. ~ Please remove the slogan, it's just too tough to read with it.
For # 43 could we try a version without the bottle, but keep the barley. Also could we have some variations with all CAPS and also a more serious looking font. The current font is decent but just sligtly is on the "cartoonish" side.
Can we do #1 without the slogan? Also, for the modified #1, the word "THE" should be capitalized as "The" to match the capitalization of "Beer Junction". Lastly, can we see a version both with the squiggles around "the" and without the squiggles?
