Hip Herringbone Booze Branding

Hillards Beer Cans are Fabulously Fashion Forward

— April 27, 2012 — Lifestyle
The popular brand Hillards Beer turned to the creative minds at Mint Design to craft a fresh new look for the company's beloved line of beers. Sporting a sleek new can and refined no-fuss typography, Design Mint has transformed the working man's nectar into a classy indulgence. Sporting hip variations of the classic herringbone sport jacket print, these beer vessels are budding fashionistas.

If you're looking for a beer as well-dressed as you, you've found it in a can of Hillards Beer. Using a neutral palette of browns, yellows and black, Mint Design has crafted a can reminiscent of your English Prof's thick tweed jacket. Perhaps your IQ will jump a couple of points with just one sip, but even if your intelligence is unaltered, you can find solace in this cold foamy drink.

Sharply dressed and perfectly poised, Hillards Beer cans are runway ready.
