We are big fans of IPA and stout beers. However, we're also very interested in the Hard Seltzers (or spiked seltzer) market. This relatively new phenomenon is pretty similar to a light beer. It contains less sugar, less calories which makes this new drink a healthier alternative for consumers.

The low and non-alcoholic drink market is booming right now. Indeed, people are looking for alternatives when they don't drink alcohol and want something other than a fruit juice or a soda. They want something more complex, more interesting, and in line with their tastes and preferences. These new opportunities and consumer demands are making the hospitality sector flourish, eager to provide creative and premium beverages. We offer our services of branding and packaging design to brands and distilleries specialising in spirit drinks without alcohol.
