I tend to select beer based on what the packaging looks like. The crazier and stranger the name or coloring on the package the more likely I am to purchase it. This method of selecting beer is often hit or miss, but the packaging is still cool!
Tokaido Beer
by Lisa Llanes - Love how she integrated the maps of public transit with this packaging!
Liten Ljus Lager
Simplistic Swedish beer packaging. Makes me want to go get drunk in an IKEA store!
HEBREW
…this one made me giggle
Heineken
Some slick looking metalic bottles
the “premium light” flavor of heineken is pretty slick as well - i’m totally in love with the typeface that the name is set in. The red star also catches my attention.


Pipeline Organic Stout
I like the ripped paper feel on the labels
Bar Beer
Interesting name for Taiwanese beer
I’ve blogged about this before, but i still love this cider packaging!

Peroni
This is the crappy italian beer I drank while studying in Italy. Its hilarious to me because the name esseitially means blue ribbon. Which makes me think of PBR.


Nova Schin
There’s even beer (non alcoholic) for pregnant women…

I too tend to select a new beer to try based on packaging. I like Red Hook beer package design a lot. Very clean looking but sharp looking. Also a big fan of Heineken Light design. I’ll have to see what new ones are out there this weekend.

Don’t forget Mississippi Mud! Pretty good black and tan, in a great cajun style bottle.

Wow, that Cider design is wonderfully clever and cute! The LLL cans – I’d Love to be rocking those at a party.
I can’t vibe with you on the Heineken designs as much. The Heineken Light bottle is elegent and well-designed, but–honestly–too phallic. Call me wack.
