Perhaps the most beloved character is the snowman named Brian, who made his Starbucks card debut in 2010 with a cup of coffee nestled improbably in one stick-hand. He quickly became a customer favorite and has returned each year, often sporting a cozy scarf and a smile. In 2013 he was joined by his avian sidekick, dubbed Louie in honor of the St. Louis Cardinals. Their bromance has been featured with a card each year ever since.
The main theme for 2013 is "Create Wonder, Share Joy". The secondary issue in 2013 is dubbed "Snowman 2013". Again, this is the 4rd year to have a snowman themed design. Some might identify it as the "snow angels", as just below the snowman are two snow angels.
