Bad Shepherd Brewery Co.

Scope:
Brand Identity
Print Design
Packaging
Signage & Environments
Vehicle Livery

Bad Shepherd Brewing Co. is a boutique brew pub in Cheltenham, Victoria, offering award winning beer. The challenge was to create a brand identity that captured the dual nature of their name, both good and mischievous, in a design that felt playful yet grounded.

  • We crafted a logo that bridges light and shadow. The shepherd’s crook stands for the good, while the Grim Reaper’s scythe adds a darker edge. Together, they combine into the silhouette of a ram’s head, a clever visual that brings the name Bad Shepherd to life. The brand identity extended through print design, packaging, signage, environments, and vehicle livery, ensuring consistency across every touchpoint.

    This identity supported the brewery’s positioning where beer is so good it almost should not be. It was effective too, with packaging for Californian Lager and Tiny IPA receiving bronze medals at the Australian International Beer Awards.
