I like that too. Why?

I was trying tio figure out if I should buy it

I think it is worth $55. But do you need it?
- ********0
not really. I thought it might provide a nice frisson of tradition without looking like my usual choices

sorry, can't help, when it comes to frisson I totally lose my nerve.

doesn't have much shelf or appetite appeal... is this a niche product?... what do the competitors look like?

(Feb 22 06, 14:29Hello chz, Yep i know what you mean, but currently their are no competiors ( that i have been told of ) they are marketing it as soemthing quirky yet quality. The quirkyness is the illustration and was trying to make the quality with the type. Is sort of toungue in cheek. Its not an add, but a label to go on packaging etc, so i think you will see the meat. Is Still early stages of making the product i believe.

Does drunken beef have to be all lower case? The lower d is off opticaly against the C.

(Feb 22 06, 14:34)Nope , just playing around. Am half tempted to have it as a handwritten look, kinda more drunk.

maybe chz's comment about appetite appeal could be solved with some color

A drunken scrawl (how does one spell drunken scrawl?) is a nice idea.
Do it.
Do it now.

(Feb 22 06, 15:09)Hopefully when it is finally coloured it should be a bit more appetising, with nice looking beer and hair etc.
