TAG LINES

These are some ideas for tag lines. I put a star next to the couple I thought were better.

With every danger comes a fine beer

Brewed with you in mind

Always there, when danger shows up

Helping you through any sticky situation

Always there, when things get strange

When dangers range from small to strange *

Survival never tasted so good *

For every danger, there’s a strange solution

The outdoorsman’s brew

Because every outdoorsman needs a map in one hand and a beer in the other

Survival is different in a strange range
