1901 Red Ale
Bold City Brewery’s Red Ale has been a favorite among BCB patrons since the brewery opened in late 2008. My good friend & super talented copywriter, Jacquie Wojcik came up with the name 1901 Red Ale to commemorate jacksonville’s perseverance through the 1901 fires, and nod at the brew’s roasted flavor. The 1901 Red Ale label & tap designs complete the newest series of 3 for the young brewery. Be on the look out for more to come 2010…hope you enjoy.

Loving this new label man! Gotta love that Public Gothic too. This is turning out to be a great line-up!

Thanks for the note, man! Public Gothic has been burning a hole in my Suitcase since I loaded it… happy I found a place to give it a go.

Thanks for the kind words, man! To answer your question, yes, the Fritz illustration was based off a vintage photo of the head brewmaster’s grandfather. I scanned in the original & vectored over top to keep the likeness pretty tight.
