Beer Cheers!

Beer Cheers, Beers, Bars, beer cans, beer guide, how beer is made, fonts, typography, jokes, humorousWith the rise of Craft Beer and numerous small independent breweries opening up across the world. Artists seek inspiration from one of their favourite tipples.


As beers fight to be seen in niche shops and bars across the globe. Many breweries are now seeking the work of local artists and illustrators to design their labels. We’re a sucker for a nice label and definitely feel the pull for artistic flair in the beer isle.

One artist currently selling work behind our Red Doors has paired up with a local bar to design labels and other illustrated goodies to help them stand out from the crowd.

Designing everything from Labels to Signage within their bar and sister bar Spit/Fire. If you’re after a good beer on your next visit to Edinburgh then these are two highly recommended stops for their great selection of local and world beers.
