I've been in the same fantasy football league for 8 years (this fall will be year 9). It's pretty cool being in a league for that long because real rivalries, dynasties and history exist. Draft day is always a great time because a lot of us only know each other through the league, so its one day to talk shit, catch up about changes in our lives, and of course drink a lot of beer. A friend of mine in the league is a regular drinker of my beer and has been bugging me for some time to brew a beer for the draft. So this year I decided I would brew up a beer and collaborate with my Team Lebowski's longtime rival. Tim (said rival) is a graphic artist who hooked me up with the logo glasses on the previous post and I thought it would be cool if he designed the label if I designed the beer.After emailing the league to find out beer preferences (which varied) I settled on a California Common. I figured it would be light enough for the heat of August, accessible to the lager and light beer fans, and hoppy enough for the pale ale-IPA fans. I'll post the recipe soon. Tim just emailed me the label, and I think its pretty cool, very professional looking and nice to include all the names. In keeping with consistency (and vanity) I had to throw the Bearded Brewing logo on there.
Salud!
Bearded Brewer
