I agree. I like. The grille is very close to looking like a hefty glass o beer as well with a foamy top.

Thanks Glen, Roy and Sindur! I really hadn't looked at the grille in that way Glen, but I like it! Thank you!

Nice mark...

Cara...this may be insignificant to many, but it looks like you have a 32' Ford grill shell with some horizontal elements added...not sure of the reason. I realize this is your artistic interpretation...the early 1930's Ford and Chevy grills had only vertical elements. I like the image overall...nice type choices.
I don't mean this as a gratuitous attack...as others have done to me here. I'm old enough to know old cars...I own a hot rod.

Thanks you guys! My life goal is complete, I can die a happy woman now! :)
@topfuel: Good eye! The '32 Ford grille was my inspiration, but I went my own direction with it since it seemed a little too boxy for this design.

One thing I was thinking about this logo is if you could actually mimmic the grille of the 32 Ford Coupe aka Deuce Coupe a little more and use vertical bars in the actual grille instead of the horizontal it would be killer. Love the concept by the way! Can you tell I am a gearhead/hot rodder! LOL!
2ccreative said on Aug. 03 '09
WOW! Y'all know your hot rods a little too well! LOL! I had no idea so many people would be able to recognize the shape, so I just made it more "generic hot rod." But I guess I'll definitely have to try it with the vertical bars now!

Nice, simple and clean, really outstanding! Now the next question is how does Hot Rod Lager taste?
effingvic said on Aug. 03 '09
great mark!

I like it just the way it is -- it's great work. Recognizable, makes sense, great quality. Vertical bars would distract, imo. Great to see this in the gallery.
2ccreative said on Aug. 04 '09
Thank you all VERY much! I think I will stick with the horizontal bars too! Thanks for your support!!!

Vintage mike? Vintage mike? Ah ha! Vintage Mic! :) I see it too.

Very clean and very nice. You could have taken this so many different ways and I like the way you went with it. Great job. What a fun project.

Very intresting logo. I like it so match :-)
cobaltcow said on Aug. 14 '09
love it a lot.
my only thought is maybe the HOTROD text is a little too modern for the era? Maybe its just the small version, but are the corners rounded slightly? If so they may need to be a little more squared off..?
2ccreative said on Aug. 17 '09
Ahhh! Okay, so now does anyone have any ideas on how to kill the "vintage microphone" look? Now that's all I can see...

Great stuff 2ccreative!
2ccreative said on Aug. 27 '09
Thanks oski!
@ brad todd - I hate to let you down, but it's actually a design for a virtual brewery that sells apparel with their original beer names and labels! There's no real beer to taste test . . . bummer. :] They wanted a slight change to the final design, but they should be selling this one soon. Check 'em out at:

If I sent you some cash would you get this screen printed for me?!
mfrank said on Aug. 20 '10
I seriously want a red shirt with this reversed out. The website that sells this shirt muddied up the mark with putting vertical lines in.
mfrank said on Aug. 20 '10
^screwed that up...just search for "hot rod lager" at www.cafepress.com
2ccreative said on Aug. 20 '10
Thanks guys! I'll ask the guys at Botts Brewery if they'll do a run of shirts without the vertical lines!
