Cheerful Beer Store Campaigns

The Beer Store and King Ursa Debut the 'Whatever the Case May Be' Ad

— July 27, 2022 — Marketing
The Beer Store recently enlisted Toronto-based agency King Ursa to create a cheerful brand campaign dubbed 'Whatever the Case May Be.' With the campaign, long-time customers and new audiences are reminded that it is more than just beer that makes The Beer Store Ontarians' favorite destination. Whatever the Case May Be features four commercials - Hoppy, Jogger, Seltzer, and Stout. Each commercial depicts one of the many types of drinkers The Beer Store sees frequent its locations. The campaign emphasizes that no matter what type of drinker you are, The Beer Store has a cold one that’s right for you— “Whatever the Case May Be.”

“With the goal of revitalizing our brand in the Ontario market, our strategy was to reach a younger audience than our historical core consumer. The media landscape has shifted dramatically in the past few years, most notably with our new millennial target.” says Ryan Calhoun, Associate Director of Strategy at OMD. “In order to connect with this group and drive brand consideration, we needed to reconsider our go-to-market approach and overhaul our media mix. Our proprietary media tools helped us to optimize our channel selection to include digital video and gaming platforms, delivering incremental reach and driving brand relevance.”
