Dog of Two Head - British rock legends Francis Rossi and Rick Parfitt (Status Quo) have worked with Hobsons Brewery to craft a traditional chestnut ale, named after the band's 1971 album.

Over the years the brand identity is updated and re-launched with subtle changes, a change of Logo or a new font.
Sometimes this brand update is done by the new owners after a brewery has been sold, other times just to give the brand a fresh new look on the ever growing market.

Below are some notes to help identify some of these changes and an aid to reference the year of the glass.
