The logo was the result of months of thinking about how to convey the idea that we embrace Belgian traditions but our real passion is creating elegant, carefully designed craft beer. The Square and Circle represent the Balance and Proportion of our beer based on inspiration from Leonardo Davinci’s Vitruvian Man. The Belgian goblet signifies our love for the Belgian brewing traditions and the edges of the glass intentionally touch in the same proportional locations as the hands and feet of Davinci’s idyllic man.
