StillWest Brewery & Grill opened in Jackson, Wyoming in 2018 in a brand-new custom-built building directly across the street from the in-town ski hill Snow King. They brew 10 beers in their building and StillWest’s brewhouse is visible through a glass wall, right behind the bar. Their covered patio has one of the prettiest views of any brewery & restaurant we’ve ever seen. Originally conceived as StillWater Brewery, owners Chaney Landers Hankins & Don Alan Hankins decided to pay tribute to Wyoming by changing the name to StillWest — a reference to the cowboy history of Wyoming and the natural beauty of the Tetons. We selected their branding to reflect this history, and the W in the logo is extended to evoke thoughts of a longhorn steer.
Initial Design Round
Before the name changed, we presented a number of different designs that we are also proud of. The first design is similar to what we ultimately ended up with. The 2nd design below has more of a badge look to it, and the 3rd design was intended to represent the National Forest signage that is so prevalent in the wildernesses of the United States.
