context

The Western world's oldest active Christian monastery was looking to market a new beer. Having built a brewery and hired a master brewer to create bespoke recipes, the next step was to hire bader.creation to create a complete brand identity.

challenge

To stand out in an already saturated market. To successfully create one of Switzerland's only abbey beers - a variety which demands tradition by definition. Finally, to create a space for a fascinating product while respecting the religious community yet appealing to the general public.

result

We deep dived in the history of the abbey to incorporate the dimension of tradition. Each contemporary recipe combines a unique historic element with a hint of mystery, so bader.creation tells this brand story with a subtle twist, linking in the taste of each beer and adding a light, poetic feel to centuries of tradition.
