Newtown, mural

This mural has been painted on the side wall of a liquor shop, on the corner of King Street and Whateley Street, in the inner city suburb of Newtown. The mural promotes the craft beer Young Henrys which is brewed in a nearby micro brewery,

  2. Yes I can see the bottle of beer, it fits in well with the shop.

  3. I don't know if this is a good advertisement. I see a skull

  4. I agree that you are mesmerized by this mural, but the snake and skull would put me off. It would be a good idea for Halloween, but not for people who didn't know the actual beer. Still, it's a great find.

    1. I think it has an inner city hipster vibe so skulls, snakes and flames would be appealing.

  5. Greetings from the city of Henry the Lion, we have such breweries, too :-)

  6. Has me wondering about the difference between a mural/street art and advertising/shop signage. Is the former art and the latter design?

  7. I'm not a beer drinker, but don't know if I would want to associate a skull and a snake with beer.
    It's still eye-catching for sure, maybe that is the point of it. Thanks for contributing Jim.
