Motörhead Raises a Toast: New Collectible Road Crew Beer Series Launches with Iconic Album Art

Motörhead fans now have something new to collect — and crack open. BevNomad has announced the revival launch of Road Crew, a new collaboration with one of rock’s most legendary bands, Motörhead. The new series pairs easy-drinking beer styles with limited-edition collectible cans featuring the band’s iconic album artwork, creating a release designed equally for fans, collectors, and beer enthusiasts.

A Collector-First Beer Series

The Road Crew series will roll out quarterly, with each release spotlighting a different chapter of Motörhead’s visual and musical legacy. The format is designed with collectors in mind — each can becomes both a beverage and a piece of rock memorabilia.

“Motörhead has always stood for authenticity, power, and doing things loud,” said BevNomad CEO Steve Kwapil. “This album art-inspired beer series captures that same spirit, giving fans something they can crack open today and collect for years to come.”

It’s a fitting tribute to a band whose visual identity — particularly the iconic War-Pig mascot — is nearly as recognizable as its music.

First Releases: Ace of Spades and The World Is Yours

The first two cans in the series draw from two standout Motörhead albums:

  • Release #1: Ace of Spades
  • Release #2: The World Is Yours

Both are set to launch in March, kicking off with a special event at the legendary Rainbow Bar & Grill in West Hollywood — a venue closely tied to Motörhead history and frontman Lemmy Kilmister himself.

Motörhead manager Todd Singerman emphasized the importance of the visual component:

“This collaboration is a tribute to Motörhead’s legacy and the fans who keep it alive. Lemmy was always fiercely involved in the art behind the band, insisting that it carried the power of the music every step of the way, and being able to see such icons as the War-Pig literally in the hands of the band’s loyal fans is well worth raising a toast to.”

More Than Just a Beer

Each Road Crew release will also include a custom Spotify playlist, adding another collectible layer to the experience. These playlists will feature:

  • Classic Motörhead tracks
  • Covers by other artists paying tribute
  • Podcasts exploring the band’s history

This multimedia approach transforms each release into a mini time capsule celebrating the band’s cultural impact.

A Series Built for Fans

BevNomad plans to continue releasing new collectible cans throughout 2026 and beyond, carefully selecting album artwork with historical relevance. With limited availability in select markets, the series is positioned to become a must-have for Motörhead fans and collectors alike.

Whether you’re drawn by the artwork, the music, or simply the novelty of a rock-and-roll-inspired brew, the Road Crew series brings a little Motörhead attitude to the craft beer world.

In true Motörhead fashion, it’s designed to be enjoyed loud — and collected forever.

Kiss Mona Lisa is a series of artworks in which renegade street-cum-commercial artist Mr. Brainwash gives Leonardo DaVinci’s iconic masterpiece a Glam Rock makeover. One iteration of the series was on view at the artist’s eponymous Art Museum in Beverly Hills this past December when I stopped in for a look-around.

I’ve lived in this east village neighborhood for over 30 years, and I don’t recall ever seeing a public artwork at the corner of 14th Street and Avenue A, let alone anything as monumental as this Beastie Boys mural by the legendary Shepherd Fairey. I first noticed the mural at 7:00 AM on the morning of October 4th as I approached the L train stop. This is what it looked like on that morning: Continue reading Posse In Effect Beastie Boys Mural By Shepard Fairey
