Christine and Rick, aka the Kokopelli Brew Crew, together came up with and designed the company logo. The Kokopelli represents both the Southwest and Midwest heritages.

It is also by coincidence that Christine, the owner, also has twin daughters.

Kokopelli is a symbol of many Native American tribes in the Southwestern United State. Kokopelli presides over both, agriculture and childbirth. He is known as a fertility and trickster god and represents the spirit of music. While usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player, their Kokopelli finds that their delicious brews are what gets his feet moving.
