Gentleman,

Jackets could work but I think a simple T-shirt would suffice, something perhaps in the nature of:


WANTED


BEER

Simple and to the point.

Go Beer

Maybe we can have "The Shitty Steinlager" diatribe on there to, with Dick Schmacs E-mail address

Hi chaps,

I like Gav's T-shirt idea.

Hence, I chucked together the two images below very quickly on Adobe InDesign.

(I also used Gav's Go Beer, which I think was him signing off, but I liked it so much I put it on the back of the T-shirt!)

What do you reckon? I'm open to suggestions.

Would anyone actually buy one if it came down to it?

How about a rip-off of the old Yahoo catchphrase ("Do you Yahoo?") : Do You Homebrew?

I could bring myself to buy one. I like the front but think Merlins "Do you Homebrew" then the web address on the back would go better. My 2 cents.

I'd probably buy a few, but NOT with the 'choker' neck style - too difficult to swallow. I also prefer the back, and Shaun's idea.
EVERYTHING is worth my interest!

Count me in for one if this idea goes ahead.

I'm with Merlin On the ""Do you Homebrew?" idea and with rain on the not choker neck style, maybe a polo shirt style?

just my 2 cents worth!

Oliver,

Foreward me the file when things get set up,

It will be cheaper than making a T and sending it

What about a picture of a Schooner and Tally with the caption "Even better than it looks" on the front and then on the back have "www.homebrewandbeer.com"

As I promised earlier in this thread (before it developed into talk about t-shirts!) I have begun trying all my beers, from oldest to newest.

As I type I'm drinking an eight-year-old stout. All I can say is "superb". It's a delight. Tasting notes will be posted at some stage soon.

In the meantime, what do you think about this for the back of the T:

If you put "DO YOU HOMEBREW?" the type has to be really small to fit in "HOMEBREW"

Looks great to me. Still going with "wanted beer" on the front?

Have you started getting quotes yet :wink:

I'm thinking Wanted: Beer on the front. But I might do a poll shortly to see what people want.

Beeerlovers,

Another idea!

"Do you belong to the Homebrew Crew?"

Sorry, not clever enough for design - leave this up to Oliver.
