We are once again joined by artists Stuart Winstone and James Yeo, as they host a live drawing session projected live at The Corner with a tasting of the fantastic beers brewed in collaboration with Yonder and Left Handed Giant.
Draw your inspiration from the Expressionists with special after hour access to the exhibition as part of our beer launch viewing on the evening. Your ticket gets you five thirds of beer and our guest brewers will have 8 beers on the tap that can be explored and enjoyed with great music and food!
James Yeo
Left Handed Giant are a Bristol-based brewing company that make a variety of styles from their two brewery sites in Bristol, one at their taproom in St Philips, and one at their brewpub in the heart of the city.
Their response to the brief brings us ‘View From The Window’. Drawing inspiration from The Blue Rider Group's base in Bavaria, this pale ale combines traditional German malt, with contemporary German hops, and the latest in US hop products and modern brewing techniques.
From James Yeo
“Influenced by the Blue Rider group’s Murnau period, I embraced their hallmark loose brushstrokes and textured landscapes, synonymous with the evolving Expressionist movement. Crafting this piece demanded a departure from my usual approach, undergoing several revisions to achieve resonance with the Blue Rider aesthetic.”
Stuart Winstone
Hailing from Mendip Hills of Somerset, Yonder Brewing take joy in bringing bold flavours and vibrant colour to the world of beer.
Founded in 2018 by Jasper Tupman and Stuart Winstone, the project of Yonder was created by a shared passion for flavour, fermentation, and fun.
Taste makers and experts in mixed fermentation, the endlessly innovative team specialise in heavily fruited beers such as the award-winning Raspberry Gose, a mainstay on the production rota since 2019, and one that has really defined their output in recent years.
Staying true to their roots they have brewed us ‘Red Cherry Mountain Gose’, a vibrant, fruit-filled nod to the classic German-style sour beer. A work of liquid art, and the perfect partner to Kandinsky and Münter’s colourful, bold and expressive style.
From Stuart Winstone
Having studied Kandinsky’s work from the Marnau period, I was taken by his use of bold lines, framing the shapes of both the distant landscape, and objects in the foreground. His piece, Blue Mountain, really drew me in, and I used its landscape, with his signature horses and riders, as the inspiration for our label. Whilst I admired his use of expressive brush strokes and layers of colour, it is far removed from my own style. So, I leaned into those shapes and outlines with an approach I’m used to; clean-lined, and liquid, abstract shapes, with a simple, balanced colour-palette; a nod to the colourful contents of the can.
