Wormwood Society Absinthe Drinkers - Love CGB

Looking for a food recipe we stumbled across this site for people who really really really love Absinthe. They love it so much they built an entire non-profit around the dissemination of quality Absinthe information. Rooting out many commonly held myths about the liqueur. Similar to our cause of promoting Copperplate, and dispelling the myths of the artsy fartsy types that Copperplate has no place in the font world.

So thank you to the Wormwood Society for existing and promoting the herbal (sometimes) green liqeur that seems to have so much mystery and history surrounding it. It’s only proper that you decided to use Copperplate Gothic Bold throughout your design, the other liqeurs of the world are surely green with envy.

Don’t Wine, It’s Copperplate Gothic Bold!!!

The Chateau features great wine and a great place to drink it. Here's to wine, alcohol and Virginia.

One of my favorite wineries in Virginia is a newcomer, Chateau O’Brien. This guy made a bunch of money creating his own businesses, selling them and because he had the chance created a kickass winery on top of a mountain overlooking 66.

When we signed up for Chateau O’Brien’s newsletters we expected the same old “Come eat 6 star chef food”, we were sorely mistaken. Opening my mailbox this morning I was greeted by the sweet serif ‘d pleasure of Copperplate Gothic Bold gently massaging my eyeballs at 8am in the morning! Screw Folgers, this is the way to wake up in the morning and that’s the way to continue doing business.

Our hats off to Chateau O’Brien, thanks for staying open for us even when you had another commitment later on in the evening, for your great Buddy’s Bistro Red and the locally grown apple desert wine. It proves you just can’t “bottle” the excitement for CGB!

Tsingtao beer makes the olympics happen, and it makes Copperplate Gothic Bold happen.

Imported from China but consumed near the heart, Tsingtao beer hath broughteth the ruckus with their creative use of Copperplate Gothic Bold. Some may say, now CGB, TSINGTAO is not CGB it is a more stylized version. To that I say, yes, while the TSINGTAO may be a more stylelized version, the BEER is CGB, and it’s close enough where I believe that the creator thought that the Beer needed CGB to pull it off.

Some may not the Chinese for their tea as in “all the tea in China”, but this Chinese beer will quickly put them on the map for their beer. Backed by great taste, Copperplate Gothic Bold, and lots of lead this beer is guaranteed to be a hit. Watch out Bud Light, Tsingtao is a comin’!

Brooklyn Lager sportin the Copperplate Gothic Bold.

When I think New York and Beer I think of Copperplate Gothic Bold. Nothing says, “Hey F*** You, I’m from Brooklyn!?!” than a nice pint of Brooklyn Lager and Copperplate Gothic Bold.

No time for frilly labels or girls, straight to the chase stamped on there for all to see Brooklyn Lager picked the perfect font.

We found this particular instance at Harris Teeter who is by far our favorite merchant to shop at simply because they use Copperplate Gothic Bold for all of their signage. When we came across this gem in the Teet’ we were ecstatic. Lager? I hardly knew her.
