What We Did

We began with a deep-dive interview to understand the company’s core values, audience, and growth goals.

The discovery phase revealed that Jack Pine's identity was deeply rooted in the feature wall of their brewery, and used widely across the existing brand, which allowed us to build on that in order to extend the Jack Pine Brewery identity, while keeping the ethos of the already built brand.
