So we do a lot of wide format (and other digital) for a beer distributor, and our two main contacts took me and a coworker out for dinner and beers tonight.
They were like do you like the IPA? We were like actually what we do for you is all digital....
The waitress was like "do you have any questions about the menu"? They were like "what all comes with the combo platter appetizer". We were like "yeah, what font is this?".
We were impressed at how the menu was printed 5/4. They said we didn't have to do the math because they'd get the tab.
They said they loved the photos on the walls.
I hated them because they were obviously printed 4CP. Probably in runs of 100,000.
Our waitress served the beers in branded glasses. They loved them because they'd sold them.
I hated them because the registration was off.
Afterwards they took us on a field trip to the liquor store.
They liked the Crown.
I liked the Firefly because the label was 4/0 but the 4 was 3 match plates plus UV.
They thought this bottle was cool because of the pattern in the glass.
I thought that bottle was cool because the label had printing on the adhesive side like Sailor Jerry's.
They were like look at the color of this whiskey and btw this tequila goes down like water.
I was like look at that true duotone. Also I bet those inks are iridescent. Probably aqueous. Can't get those bottles wet.
I'm glad I have lots of friends in printing because otherwise I probably wouldn't have any friends.
Sorry for this useless thread.
