Design Contest! A Coaster + A Postcard = A Coastcard

We certainly enjoy having you stop in for a beer or some tasters at The Bruery Tasting Room, and as we continue to slowly and carefully grow our small craft brewery, we want you to be a bigger and bigger part of who we are. After all, we have the opportunity to grow and become an even better brewery for you because of your support!

With this in mind, we think it’s about time we give our coasters a little refresher at The Bruery Tasting Room, so we’re on the look out for new coaster design ideas.
Additionally, we figure our coasters are probably getting tired of just sitting around our place, so we’re making some snazzy coasters that double as postcards. Not only will these coaster/postcards (which we are dubbing “coastcards”) be used at our Tasting Room, we’ll also send them out to local beer spots that sell our brews, hand them out at events, and encourage patrons to send one in the mail via The Tasting Room mailbox — an outgoing mailbox we’ll be setting up just for these brand new little postcard coasters.

We’re hosting a coastcard design contest through the month of June for anyone interested in taking a crack at this fun little project.
