Punkin Ale

CARTOUCHE Hand LETTERING

This is a Hand lettering piece for the Brew Letters project featuring Dogfish Head’s Punkin Ale.

The beer made its debut at the 1994 Punkin Chunkin event in Salisbury, MD and has been made seasonally ever since. It’s brewed with pumpkin meat, brown sugar, and spices. When the season cools, this is the perfect beer to warm up with. 

The composition of the piece was inspired by Dogfish Head's unique approach to brewing. Using a circle to fill the cartouche piece with organic forms brought the lettering and beer together.
