Barona Vila Morena label

Watercolor illustration

Brewed since 2017

Client: Barona Brewing Company

Since 2017, I’ve been doing label illustrations for Barona Brewing Company, the craft beer brand from Marvão, Alentejo. Each different new brew gets its own sketch, and every one is a cool challenge! A lot of the concepts are based on the very atmospheres that the brewers want their beer to convey, so the project becomes like a sketchbook in bottles.

The first beer that Barona commissioned an illustration for, was the Vila Morena, a commemorative brew, celebrating Salgueiro Maia – the hero of the 1974 Carnation Revolution in Portugal. And the story of the illustrated Barona beers began!
