Competition for visibility on a West Coast craft beer shelf is fierce. Stoutnik’s frosted matte black bottle is immediately visible from a distance and printing techniques not usually seen on craft beer labels increase the differentiation even more. The constantly changing colours of the satellite-esque foil stamp draw the eye as the customer walks past. The stylish, sparse, contemporary design compels him to pick up the bottle. The story told in blind-embossed Morse Code seals the deal, propelling him from a state of curiosity towards a confirmed launch plan.
