DESIGN NAME: Tucher AEcht Nuernberger Kellerbier
PRIMARY FUNCTION: Bavarian Beer Packaging Design
INSPIRATION: The Tucher Brewery is located in Nuremberg, a city whose history is intertwined with beer throughout the ages.
After the city council passed a purity law in 1302, the first "quality beer" was brewed here. On their mission to preserve the traditional brewing art, Tucher brews the unfiltered and naturally clouded AEcht Nuernberger Kellerbier ("Original Nuremberg cellar beer") in a traditional way. Of course, we wanted the packaging design to reflect the brewing heritage of Nuremberg and Bavaria.
UNIQUE PROPERTIES / PROJECT DESCRIPTION: In medieval times, local breweries let their beer age in over 600 years old rock cut cellars underneath the Nuremberg castle. Honoring this history, the packaging of the "AEcht Nuernberger Kellerbier" takes an authentic look back in time. The beer label shows a hand drawing of the castle sitting on rocks and a wooden barrel in the cellar, framed by vintage style typefonts.
The seal label with the company's "St. Mauritius" trademark and the copper colored crown cork convey craftsmanship and trust.
