The Beacons Are Lit
Three toasts to the brewers whose vats don’t run dry;
Seven beers for Augustans in their taprooms of stone;
Nine cheers to the beer fans who love hops and rye;
One keg for the party you’re throwing at home;
One beer above them all; one brew to top them;
One stout made with coffee for wint’ry celebrations;
In the land of Augusta, there’s a limited supply.
Brave adventurers, take heart! The fine men-and-lady-folk at Savannah River Brewing have journeyed far and labored long to bring the land of Augusta a rare brew that will warm the heart of even the stoutest dwarf. Our palantir reveals that it’s delicious.
To complement this undertaking, their council tasked the Wier / Stewart Fellowship with carrying out a can design worthy of its contents. The Beacons Are Lit and so is this can, if we may say so ourselves.
““The immersive experience of working with the W/S crew was extremely rewarding. They nailed the tone and message that we needed for this limited beer release. We had a distinctive look that needed to evoke a Tolkien-esque vibe, and they knocked it out of the park.””
