100 Examples of Brilliant Beer Branding

From Authentic Bavarian Branding to Mythical Beer Branding

— June 3, 2015 — Marketing
With more beer to choose from than ever before, these examples of brilliant beer branding demonstrate that what you put on the outside of the bottle is just important as what's inside. From nostalgic artisanal designs to whimsical artwork, there are beer brands designed to appeal to every type of consumer.

One aspect of the beer branding that companies have begun to devote increasing attention to is the label. Because the label is the first thing that a consumer will see, many companies have taken to including eye-catching graphics such as personified animal cartoons, comic book heroes and even demonic creatures. There are also clever scratch-off labels and dry-erase labels that allow the brew branding to become an interactive experience.

Of course beer branding isn't just limited to artistic and creative labels. Many brands have begun experimenting with different materials and even unconventional shapes to help capture the eye of the consumer. There are examples of ceramic bottles, harp-shaped cans and artisanal wooden cases, all of which test the boundaries of traditional packaging. These clever and creative example of brilliant beer branding prove that there really are no limits when it comes to design and style.
