With my new avatar, I figured I'd post the rest of my entries to the Yazoo "dress your growler" contest here.
A small production secret... I started the photo shoot with an empty growler, but didn't like how the photos came out... they were really hard to clean up and lacked some character. So, I had to run out to fill a growler (in hindsight, I should have just filled with several bottles of homebrew... anywhoo.... Yazoo is all the way in Nashville, and the only fill station local was Whole Foods... who didn't have Yazoo on tap. This is Calfkiller Grassroots Pale in the growler (a very tasty local beer). I may have been disqualified had that tidbit gotten out...
Of course, if it's a Nashville brewery, it's got to have country music. I dug into the kids old Potato Head and Build a Bear stuff that they hadn't used in years along with some googly eyes, added a Honky Tonk Highway photo, and we have a country music star growler. I couldn't find a small guitar in the accessories, so I had to settle with printing one out. Pretty happy with this one all together... only a few small nitpicks...
The Titans are also huge in Nashville, so I needed a Titans growler as well. I first considered a player, but I thought integrating the guy into a crowd might be easier/more effective. Found my Yazoo football helmet from one of the Beer Runs, added my son's Titans jersey and some electrical tape and googly eyes, and I have my football fan. Not much I would have changed about this one...
The Bat Building is a skyline icon, and I had a Build a Bear Batman costume, so this was also an easy one to figure out.
To tie it all together, the Taproom was another obvious choice. The main barkeep at the time had a rockin' beer beard (bet they could have brewed some great beer with a yeast harvest from it). Used some yarn, a 5oz snifter, and my Yazoo work shirt, with a generic Taproom photo backdrop. Not totally happy with this one, but it came out pretty well. If I had it to do over again, I would have cleaned up a few things, and tightened up some rough edges, but this one finished up after midnight the night before the submission, so it is what it is. Still liked the concept, and I like most of the execution...
So, the final submission looked something like this...
And the prize...

Things men have made with wakened hands, and put soft life into
Are awake through years with transferred touch and go on glowing
For long years.
And for this reason some old things are lovely
Warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them.
