Inspiration: Beer Label Art & Jeremy Holmes Illustration

The other day Brett and I reviewed and rated Sierra Nevada's fabulous Estate Homegrown Ale, and I think we loved the label as much as we loved the beer:
Looking for a nice, big image of this lovely piece to share with you guys, I ran across a similar label from a Sierra Nevada/Dogfish Head combo beer from 2009, Life & Limb:
"Who is creating this gorgeous art!?" I wondered. Turns out it's illustrator Jeremy Holmes of Mutt Ink. Check out some more of his amazing work:

  2. I'm not sure if that Estate label is his newest work, but his shift into a brighter color palette really defies that old-timey style. Gorgeous stuff. Hope he sticks with the day-glo for awhile.

  3. Moriah, you're welcome! I'd love to see your beer label!

    Brett, I totally agree! And I don't think Estate is a new beer anyhow.
