Goose Island Officially Unveils Brand New Visual Identity and Variety Pack
Classic Brand Elevates Presence with New Image
Goose Island began its legendary journey in Chicago in 1988, driven by founder John Hall's aim of making the best craft beer in America. Carrying that ambition through to today, Goose Island continues to creatively explore the technical possibilities of brewing, resulting in many sought-after craft beers. Over the years, Goose Island has made great contributions to the development of the modern craft beer industry by leading craft beer education and building a culture around the pursuit of exquisite beer. Since entering into the Chinese market in 2016, Goose Island has firmly established itself as the leading IPA brand in the country with its 6-time award-winning IPA and compelling brand experience.
Goose Island's adherence to craft culture lies not just in state-of-the-art craftsmanship or its distinctive brand identity, but in its constant drive towards innovation. Bearing this core principle in mind, Goose Island began upgrading its visual identity. With a modern and premium brand image, Goose Island highlights the quality craftsmanship of its beer, and is looking forward to creating a deeper brand connection with consumers.
With a minimalist design, Goose Island aims to intuitively highlight the key attributes of each beer and the brand, while the revamped packaging creates an increasingly modern image and brings a new life to Goose Island. The iconic black and white goose motif jumps forward from the vibrant background, with a bright and mature texture. Inspired by the flag of the city of Chicago, the bottle features three vertical stripes and four stars as a nod to the urban roots of Goose Island in Chicago. Meanwhile, the illustrations emphasizing "hops" and "wheat" highlight the most important ingredients, while still appealing to craft sensibilities.

The continued use of the hops illustration also reminds consumers that despite its lighter body, this beer still contains bright hop aromas and flavors.
