TRULY INDEPENDENT AND ADVENTUROUS

LUCKY LUKE BREWING CO.

THE BACKGROUND


Lucky Luke Brewing Company is proudly based in the high desert town of Palmdale, California. Specializing in adventurous and rustic ales and lagers, the dedicated founders, Brian and Samantha Schmitz, put in significant elbow grease, along with some late-night hours, to create and perfect the quality of the pints they serve across their three unique locations. Back in 2017, they took a proactive step and reached out to refresh their packaging visual identity and system to enhance their brand's recognition and bring awareness beyond just their local neighborhood.

BUILD A BRAND AROUND ONE MARK

Owners Brian and Sam were committed to honoring the brand equity they had carefully cultivated before our collaboration. Together, we decided to enhance their existing brand mark by building a more comprehensive visual identity that complemented and elevated its original spirit. Our approach focused on adding depth and flexibility to the brand’s look while preserving its core essence. As the identity evolved, we introduced additional brand elements to further enrich the visual system, providing a cohesive foundation that would support future growth and adaptability.

REIMAGINING THE PACKAGING

I implemented the new visual identity across packaging formats to launch the refined branding, ensuring each design reflected the brand's updated look. This included flagship beers and seasonal releases, each with distinct visuals for their flavors. I also designed the CAN-DEMIC series during the COVID pandemic, creating unique labels that resonated with local fans while blending the brand’s core identity with memorable design.
