Generating Excitement for Local Brands

The goal was to create a impactful visual that helped sell a specific category in to retailers, that could also be used as marketing to the consumer.

I looked to create a brand for this sub-category to generate excitement for the products in our portfolio and create a memorable image. Borrowing the colors from a pale lager and applying them to the city gave the Chicago skyline that hazy summer afternoon look that reflected the time of year and the occasion to drink pale lagers.
