Our brand team from Brandhouse UK gathered inspiration from our rich history. St. Stefanus has been brewed for over 700 years, originating at a monastery in Ghent. Known as Augustijn in Belgium, the brand was renamed for international distribution in order to reflect its heritage – namely its origins at the Sint Stefanus Monastery.

You can see hints of the history on the bottle itself. For example – the bottle cap shows the flaming heart of St. Augustijn (the monastery is part of the Augustinian order) and was taken directly from one of the actual stained glass windows at the monastery. The ‘S’ of the St. Stefanus logo itself also reflects the monastery – the font comes directly from one of the library’s songbooks.

Today, the beer is brewed by Jef Versele at his family brewery just outside of Ghent. When the monks realised that they could no longer feasibly brew the beer, they entrusted the recipe to the Van Steenberge family. Today, Jef and his family still work closely with the monks to retain the beer’s quality and heritage. Jef’s own passion and dedication is also reflected on the bottle – in the form of his own signature. — St. Stefanus

Dru Bru, an independent Seattle based brewery tasked me with developing the brand identity as well as designing their first product offering, a Mini Growler which is refillable. On the back of the Mini Growler there is an area to write the brew flavor and alcohol content which can be different each visit. It is a responsible way of distributing their product and at the same time creates a small community of like minded individuals.

Deep Ellum Brewing Company opened it’s doors in the spring of 2011 and Caliber was right there to help introduce them to the commmunity. For Caliber, it was important for them to capture the alternative spirit that is Deep Ellum. The new branding system for DEBC is rough, energetic and ever-changing, just like the beer it represents. Caliber helped them launch their new branding at the Deep Ellum Arts Festival with a variety of shirts, stickers and booth graphics. DEBC is bringing craft beer to Dallas, and Caliber is right there to order the first round.

I created the concept for a branding class. The idea behind it was that I wanted to create a brewery that was more for the low key man, someone that wasn’t into the loud hustle and bustle of a banner-ridden sports bar. Somewhere where you could take your old man and grab a cold one and a bite to eat. I wanted it to have a vintage identity without it feeling themed.
