Joining us week is Amaury “Ammo” Dastarac, a freelance illustrator based in Brussels. You’ve likely seen Ammo’s work; he’s created concert and festival posters for Neurosis, Converge, The Melvins, Chelsea Wolfe, Enslaved and Hellfest. He’s also illustrated beer labels for breweries De Ranke, Cantillon and most recently Brasserie De La Mule. We discuss his style, visual and musical inspirations, how he crossed over into illustrating beer labels, embedding himself first into legendary venue Magasin 4 in Brussels, then the fabric of the Brussels beer scene. We also dedicate time to how he approaches working with the legendary lambic producer Cantillon, whose past labels are iconic and in the case of Rosé de Gambrinus, controversial. What goes into bringing producers and brands visually into the present?
