With the green holiday just around the corner, I wanted to do something new. It was only natural to do something with the Irish flag and beers.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.gabrielangeldesign.com/shop.cgi/tshirtsandgifts.gabrielangel.2018290+irish-beers-flag.html"><img class="alignleft" title="Drink a Toast to Ireland" src="http://www.gabrielangeldesignblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/Irish-flag-painted-across-5-beer-bottles.png" alt="Irish flag appears painted across five beer bottles" width="150" height="150" /></a><br />
Irish beers are the perfect place for the flag. <em>St. Patrick&#8217;s day</em> may be about Ireland traditions, but it has become a multicultural holiday of drinking and wearing green. The sale of beers goes way up and there are plenty of bars that celebrate the holiday. I&#8217;m not sure if I have any Irish blood in me, but I&#8217;ve celebrated my fair share of Saint Paddy&#8217;s days.</p>
<p>In the college tradition of drinking large amounts of beer on this holiday, I definitely wanted a beer bottle centered design. I took 5 beer bottles standing next to each other and decided to integrate the flag of Ireland. It seemed obvious to take the flag and have it appear to be painted across all of the bottles. It came out really well, so I put the seal of approval (my logo) on the side of the last bottle.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a design that I definitely need seen in multiple places, so I also added it to my Zazzle shop under the <a title="Celebrate Ireland with Each Bottle" href="http://www.zazzle.com/gabrielangel/gifts?cg=196454936193595013">Irish Beer Bottles</a>.</p>
