Favorite Design | Favorite Brew | Favorite Friend
I often imagine the creative process of making a physical piece of work to be much like parenting and the end results your children. You know… the line about how you love them the same but in different ways, for their unique, individual characteristics.
At least this is how I feel about every design we make (and by we, I mean Matt) and I don’t even technically “make” the products. So color me surprised when I tossed him the “so what’s your favorite?” and he tossed it back to me in no time at all.
Here it is folks. Out of all our designs, Matt’s current favorite*(not surprisingly, it has to do with beer) is our 4 Bottle Beer Caddy. Matt explains below.
Favorite Feature:
Beside the main feature of snugly holding four bomber bottles, making it easy to transport beer anywhere without worrying about dropping a bottle or bottles banging around in a grocery bag, I like the handle. The curve of the wood just feels nice in your hand unlike the alternative of a plastic grocery bag that could possibly cut off circulation. This could very seriously affect the drinking of delicious craft beer.
A Little Back Story:
I ended up acquiring a significant amount of New Belgium Bombers and have been sharing the wealth with friends so this was
really a great way to stylishly(& safely) transport the beer. Practical and awesome.
Favorite Craft Beer Pairing:
The prototype dimensions were based off a New Belgium bomber bottle, so the obvious choice for the ideal pairing is one of my favorite beers, the New Belgium Trippel.
What Shiner thinks about the 4 Bottle Beer Caddy:
Shiner is a huge supporter of New Belgium, so he is completely on board with anything that makes it easier to carry more beer.

What would be your ideal beer pairing for the 4 Bottle Beer Caddy? Would something other than a New Belgium brew do the carrier more justice? Or do you just want to share the love for your favorite craft beer?
