ABOUT THE BREWERY:
Dorchester Brewing Company is a partner brewing facility with a public Tap Room serving partner and in-house brews, cider and wine on tap in Boston, MA.
The Brewery was created by a team of Boston professionals in 2016 with an unnatural love of craft beer, to meet production demands for the local craft beer industry while supporting the economic development of Dorchester.
​
We helped them launch their initial branding, which then evolved into what they are today.

Mad & Noisy Brewery
THE PROBLEM:
In a market overflowing with options, Creemore Springs Brewery’s Mad & Noisy experimental craft-beer series needed dynamic packaging to stand out.
THE SOLUTION:
Since creative combinations were a core feature with this series of beers, we made the “&” sign central to our design. It brought together dynamic illustrations that represented elements of a particular beer, everything from French hens to fire-breathing hydras. Imagination was key to the mix; now craft beer lovers would find out what it tasted like.
​
THE RESULTS:
​​
-
After changing positioning and packaging, Hops & Bolts’ volume hit +20% vs. target
-
Exceeded target at primary craft beer retailer (LCBO) and met target at secondary (The Beer Store)
-
Won Gold in the World Beer Championships Packaging Competition
