Hopworks releases 2020 Brand Calendar

Hopworks Urban Brewery (HUB) is the latest to release their 2020 brand calendar with a complete design refresh with more cans in the portfolio. The new simple, clean and fun, illustrated look for Hopworks Urban Brewery is created by Martin Ontiveros and integrated by Paige Buda.

The brand calendar showcases new core, seasonal, and limited release beers but does not include HUB's new monthly hazy IPA's, quarterly imperial series, quarterly fruit beers and a new extremely limited stoke beer collection. In January, these include Hindsight 2020 Hazy IPA, Queen of Hearts Imperial Hoppy Red Ale, and Alternating Currant Juicy IPA all available now.

Highlights of Hopworks’ year-round and seasonal beers in 2020 include:
