Ontario's Oast House Brewers makes its beer inside of a red barn on a Niagara-on-the-Lake property, which made it an easy process for Inside Design to come up with a beer 2-pack for the brewery's Farmhouse Ales. With a slim barn-inspired carrying case, the story of how the craft beer is made comes forward. On the front of the boxes are a few highlighted points, along with a lengthier description on the sides of the boxes as to the beer's origins.
As well as being extremely compact and easy to transport home because there are fewer bottles on board, the design stand out as one that is even potentially a collectible item. On the front of the boxes is a square cutout that almost looks like a barn door, showing off the coordinating label on the beverage.
