Beer Labels And The Rise Of The Craft Brewery

Whether you’re enjoying a delicious American Pale Ale, sipping on a refreshing pint of Pilsner, or if you’re drinking an extra-strong Imperial Porter; craft beer is a diverse and well loved group of alcoholic beverages.

So with such a large recent growth in popularity, how can you stand out amongst the crowd? Could digitally printed beer labels be your brew’s secret weapon?

What Is A Craft Brewery?

The term is often used subjectively to describe a whole range of different beets, however as written in Craftbeer.com, a crafter brewery is a small scale with less than 6million barrels produced annually, independent with less than 25% of the company being controlled by “a beverage alcohol industry member that is not itself a craft brewer”.

Simply put craft beers and their brewers are small scale. They deviate from the norm and the small nature of the product and unique twists and styles lends a great appeal to their products.

Why Have Craft Beers Suddenly Become So Popular?

Craft beer has grown increasingly more popular over the years. More and more bars and pubs are serving craft beers and more shops are including craft beers in their shelves. So what’s the reason for craft beer’s recent growth in popularity?

Well one argument is that the diverse range of beer styles and flavours on offer people with the opportunity to try something new. This makes it a fantastic choice for people of a wide range of ages. Young adults who are discovering their preferred tastes with regards to alcohol can experience a diverse range of flavours in the craft beer world; however older drinkers who want to try something new can also find lots of new flavours and beer styles from craft breweries.

So With The Rise In Popularity, How Can You Stand Out?

The rise in popularity of craft beers clearly shows that there is a demand, especially amongst younger adults between the ages of 18-30 years. However, with so many businesses ‘popping up’ it can be difficult for newer less established businesses to stand out from the crowd and tap into this wealth of potential customers.

So if you’re looking to boost the awareness of your brand and stand out from the crowd on the bar or pub shelf. We would advise updating your product’s label design.

How Do Beer Labels Help?

Here at PeterLynn4Lables we are very aware of just how powerful a good label can be. With good label design on your side, you can attract people to your product and inspire purchases, but on the other hand, poor label design could see otherwise interested individuals flock to your competitors.

Don’t just take our word for it though, according to a study from DSM , a global specialist in Nutrition, Health & Sustainable Living, “More than 45% of 18-to-30-year olds we surveyed agreed strongly that the beer they drink says a lot about them.” We have frequently discussed the importance of telling a story through label design and this study shows the desire and advantages of doing just that. However, the study doesn’t endthere; it also states that branding is very important as “ beer labels trigger 60% of this group to make a purchase”. Simply put; if you want to succeed you need high quality beer labels to attract customers.
