This makes me really thirsty. I think Malibu could use some of that quenching power at the moment too (Navis here might be looking for a new job since it might be burned down).
What font is used for that? I particularly like the way 1972 looks.
I don’t think its Helvetica because this 9 is abit more pill shaped and the 2 goes straight down after the top curve and the 2 in Helvetica is abit more wavy in that area :)
