Cervecería Sagrada – Mexican beer packaging
Posted by rod - 21.09.2011
There are several posts dedicated to Mexican wrestlers on CreativeRoots such as the 1800® Tequila post, Eco Warrior and others. But I just fell in love with this mexican beer identity concept called Cervecería Sagrada. So here we’ve got one more.
Designed by Mexican graphic designer Jose Guizar who also designed the A trip begins when you dream it – Italy and Russia.
“Lucha Libre is one of the most iconic symbols of Mexican popular culture, and has been exported as part of the country’s identity.
I created the concept, brand, and designed the identity and packaging for this premium Mexican craft beer.
The brand’s identity is inspired by the golden era of lucha in the 1950′s, when movie heroes were not Superman or the X Men, but El Santo and his wingmen, fighting creepy monsters on a silver ’52 Alfa Romeo with surf music in the background.
The variety of styles are named after fictional characters also inspired by the 50′s lucha style; Black King (Imperial Stout), Blond Gomez (Lager) and The Vampire’s Son (Red Ale).”
