About Beer Mail by Volfas Engelman クラフトビールのパッケージ

Beer Mailは、クラフトビールのシリーズのために手がけたパッケージデザインである。ラベルは郵便切手のような枠で縁取られており、ブランド名と、切手が持つコレクターズアイテムとしての魅力を想起させる。各銘柄には、一見すると無関係に見える要素を組み合わせたコラージュ・イラストレーションが施されている。ビールに使用されている原材料がイラストの中に隠されており、消費者はそれを探す楽しみを味わえる。製品は、デジタル印刷のラベルを貼った330mlのガラス瓶と、印刷を施した500mlの缶で販売される。このデザインは、本シリーズの少量生産という特性を反映したものである。

Design Challenge
Gentleman is the brand character of Volfas Engelman which is the head brand Beer Mail trademark. And the challenge in this case was to combine this “chatty extrovert” design of craft beer with the gentleman qualities of head brand at the same time avoiding to appear casual and visually similar to a classic beer. Collage graphics together with a postage stamp resembling label was the answer in this case, combining art courage and gentlemenhood into unique visual identity.
Research
Craft beer category is exceptional in the field containing bold package designs and creative illustrations. Big part of labels are exactly that which helps to stand out and highlight the courage of producer as well as unique qualities of product itself. Sometimes even chaotic illustrations helps to reveal that rebellious approach to beer making.
One of the most important goals was to find that exclusive style and to make this product noticeable in this challenging market.
Inspiration
The name Beer Mail made us look at the subject of mail. The frame of the stamp was inspired by the idea of the post stamps and how unique it can be, oftentimes even collection worthy. The products are exclusive and produced in small quantities, so we wanted this to be reflected in a design of each label. Every beer type has a unique combination of unexpected flavours that sets the tone for a collage style illustrations combining elements that are inseparable at the first glance.
Project Duration
This project started in January 2020 and is still ongoing adding a new variety every other month.
Operation Flow
Beer Mail brand products are produced by one of the biggest local breweries and standard packaging mediums was presented as an only option for the time being. Only challenge was to blend in existing craft beer market as smooth as possible. Therefore 330ml bottles and 500ml cans were selected as the primary packaging.
