Description: At Igloo, beer is a legend in the making. When it came to creating posters for our craft beers, we reimagined the drinking glass itself as a living embodiment of the beer within.

Each glass was illustrated in the tribal geometry of Inuit art — a style intrinsic to Igloo’s design DNA — transforming iconic glass silhouettes into storied figures. Heavy Hitter, the Russian stout’s snifter became a hulking bear to trap its aromas. The Konkan lager’s curved pilsner glass is a bubbly barracuda to highlight carbonation. And Dabble Dubble, the Belgian ale’s stein, is a high-flying kestrel for hearty pours. Embedded within these totemic forms were easter eggs of hops, grains, provenance and process.

The copy, crisp and dry, mirrored the flavour profiles as distinct personalities. From “Don’t poke the bear”, "A bird in hand", to “Swim against the current,” the writing brought levity and identity to each brew.

Together, the illustration and copy turned the posters into an induction in the coolest club to raise a glass with.
