This summer it was announced that Constellation Brands, recent purchasers of Ballast Point, would also add Funky Buddha Brewery, of Oakland Park, Florida to its stable of high-end breweries.
I worked closely with Jon and the rest of The Brandit team to redevelop their packaging system and re-envision their brand identity a few years ago, while I was with the agency. Their two flagship products, Hop Gun IPA and Floridian Hefeweizen, I developed as part of the initial launch, working with Rubens Scarelli to create the amazing illustrations.
Funky Buddha was the #1 New BA Craft Beer Vendor of 2015, after introducing the new brand and packaging.
