Psychedelic sunflowers, a glimmering starscape, and beer can-abducting flying saucers are a few of the objects scattered about Hannah Bunzey’s award-winning can design.

The Asheville artist — who has named her design “Keep your head in the clouds, your feet on the ground, and a cold one in your hand!” — is one of ten creators featured on 140 million cans of Pabst Blue Ribbon beer distributed nationwide.

“My art is meant to be fun and playful, and to take the viewer out of the mundane for a moment,” shares Bunzey. “I’m a ‘make it up as you go’ kind of artist.”

The cans were officially released this fall and are now available for purchase anywhere PBR is sold. You can also check out Bunzey’s design blown up on two area billboards (Tunnel Rd. and Patton Ave.) now through Sun., Nov. 27.

Cheers to you, Hannah — our cup overfloweth with local pride.
