  • Project Brief: Develop a cohesive brand identity, an illustrated beer-label system, and supporting merchandise for Upper Pass Beer Company, reinforcing its farmhouse-brewery roots and distinct craft presence.

In beverage packaging design, flavor clarity must coexist with brand consistency. Upper Pass strikes that balance through a fixed layout and recognizable mountain symbol, complemented by vibrant, narrative-driven artwork unique to each brew.
