The history of the brand inspired our solution. The existing packaging didn’t relate to the original promise of ‘great tasting beer with half the calories.’ Our core idea was to remind consumers that Miller Lite was the original light pilsner, an iconic American product with strong brewing credentials and an innovator in the beer market.

We redesigned the original 1970’s Miller Lite packaging in a modern way, introducing new elements that would allow us to build a brand for the 21st century.

The redesigned original heritage can formed the basis of a rich and layered visual identity system that spans packaging, tap handles, glassware, special editions, promotional packaging, digital and more.

The identity embraces redesigned Germanic typography and beer crest that elevates originality and the high quality ingredients, whilst also building a new set of equities including iconic wallpaper, typography and monogram to add depth.

Key equities are modified for NASCAR, Baseball and Ice Hockey alliances keeping them cohesive with the identity but different enough to gain interest and impact.

The new visual identity has reminded consumers that Miller Lite is a beer with brewing credentials and has achieved massive commercial success increasing sales by 9.25%, exceeding all expectations.
