The Beau’s #feBREWary 2018 Chalk Art Contest
As you surely know by now, more than 370 pubs and restaurants in Ontario and Québec are currently partaking in Beau’s feBREWary, a month-long beer celebration that introduces a brand new Beau’s beer every week in the month of feBREWary.
On Thursday, Feb. 1, we kicked things off with the launch of Ninho do Corvo, a coconut robust porter we brewed with our friends from Weird Barrel, a craft brewery in Ribeirão Preto, Brazil.
In the years since we began #feBREWary many years ago, our pub and restaurant partners have often riffed on the feBREWary beer label designs on their chalkboards and posted ’em online. We’ve always shared these images internally here at Beau’s and really enjoyed them.
So this year we thought: Why don’t we share the #feBREWary chalkboard art with the world?
We’ve asked our friends at the participating #feBREWary restaurants to show off their chalk-handling skills, use their chalkboard as their canvas, and share with us their interpretation of each week’s new feBREWary beer label. They’re posting their photos and using the hashtag #feBREWary across their social media channels. Do follow it.
Once a week, our in-house design team will be weighing in on the submissions and crowning a winner. At the end of it all we’re going to ask you, the fans, to help us choose a champion from those winners.
