Client: Trout River Brewing LLC

Objective: Rebrand. The brewery recently changed ownership and the new owners wanted to begin serving to the craft beer scene in Vermont. This called for a new look that would be relevant to the craft beer audience yet have a personality that could stand on its own. The main look for each flavor showcases their short-hand logo, the "TR," for easy recognition on the shelf. For short-run special edition cans, the brewer's mother hand draws art for the company.
