Juan Marante has a style rooted in coastal city culture. His art is so authentically his own that if you see his work on a shirt, poster, beer can or mural, you can instantly tell it’s a El Gran Tocayo illustration.

Inspired by surfboards, sunshine and suds, he has built an amazing career creating colorful and detailed doodles for some of the most recognized brands in the world.

Comic strips and a love for hops have inspired a multitude of beautifully colored labels for some of your favorite breweries and we are stoked share his story and his passion.
