Hopewell Brewing

On board since 2017, I've been fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate with a great team at one of Chicago's most delightful breweries—contributing art for a handful of one-off labels while owning several of their ongoing series (Neon/ neonette, Deluxe, Arrow of Time).

With NEON being the brewery's largest and brightest series of brews to date, the label always had to be a special one—something completely out of category. Working closely with the team, I learned their labeling machine could go as small as 3/4" in height, this seemed like the perfect way to let these Pét-Nat beauties speak for themselves. Neon, neonette labels and glassware ongoing since early 2019.

Arrow of Time (Wild ale, 2020), the first of a "once in a while" series of Oak aged Wild Ales. Abstract type, more to come.

Fair Point (Belgian-Style Ale, 2019), "you know what, that's a fair point" is what you might hear in a debate about art, so I kept the label blank to let people color it in themselves and have a debate about art. Please color responsibly.
