Picnic Panic Gluten Free Beer
Brand Identity & Packaging
Picnic Panic is a gluten free beer company hoping to become the go-to gluten free beer for those partaking in gluten free diets. The concept comes from the common experience, such as anxiety, that someone with dietary restrictions cause at social gatherings revolving around food. The name Picnic Panic reflects this experience in a respectful and light-hearted way while the graphics create an eclectic and trippy feeling, similar to that of panic or drunkenness. The visual concept incorporates natural elements to represent the beer types and reconnects back to the idea of where this product will most likely be used.
