The Great Breweries of California

Like much of our other work, this painting is oil on canvas. It differs in that it is far more painterly and loosely impressionistic in construction. This painting contains crowns from what we consider the great breweries of California - North Coast, Lagunitas, Firestone Walker, The Bruery, Stone, Bear Republic, Pizza Port, Anchor, Russian River, Moylan's, and Sierra Nevada.

Masters of the barrel, Firestone Walker brews out of Paso Robles, California. We are huge fans of Firestone Walker and can't resist picking up at least one six pack of Union Jack IPA every week. From their great regular line-up, to the incredible Abacus barleywine we recently tried, we're pretty convinced this brewery can do no wrong, which is why we wanted to pay tribute to them with this painting.

"For Christmas last year my girlfriend completely surprised me by commissioning you to paint a bottle of Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier. A few months earlier we had met up in Munich for Oktoberfest which included a day trip out to the Weihenstephaner brewery, which I think will go down as one of my favorite days ever. The painting holds a very special place in my heart and it hangs proudly in our living room situated so that wherever you sit you can easily see it and a truncated version of it resides as the lock screen on my phone. Thank you both so much for the wonderful work that you do, I check your website frequently and wish that I could afford to buy some more paintings."

"When I first saw their paintings online, I honestly thought they were modified photographs, because they truly look like the real thing. But after checking their site out and seeing their other work, I could not resist having one of my own for my basement (aka Manland).

All I can say is that I was blown away at the final product. I kept asking Louie to send me photos of the painting in progress, but he refused in that they don't like doing that until it is finished. I was like a kid waiting for Christmas morning. When I finally got the piece, I was truly amazed. It is proudly handing at the bottom of my basement steps so everyone sees it as they go downstairs (and also sits right outside my beer cellar). "
