Sea Dog Brewing Company’s award-winning Sea Dog Bluepaw, Raspberry and Apricot Wheat Ales will all feature new packaging and labels when they hit store shelves this month.
These three wheat beers are the first to launch with the company’s new look.  New packages for Sea Dog’s full line of year-round and seasonal products will be on shelves by the end of the year.
The new look features bolder, sharper imagery and emphasize the Sea Dog brand by incorporating bold block lettering and consistently highlighting the beer style.
“We’ve also taken this as an opportunity to introduce some dramatic new colors,” noted Bruce Forsley.  “The look is contemporary and relevant to a younger and more diverse consumer.”
The packaging was redeveloped to align with the branding of the popular Sea Dog pubs in Maine and Massachusetts.
In addition to unveiling this new look, this summer the company will introduce Sea Dog Blonde Ale in 6- and 12-packs.
“Sea Dog Blonde Ale is a bit lighter and lower in alcohol and is what’s known as a session beer,” continued Forsley.  “It’s the perfect alternative for the beer lover transitioning into the craft category.”
Sea Dog beer is available in 12-packs, 6-packs, and on draft.  All three of the award-winning fruit beers debuting the new packaging this month pair well with light fare such as chicken, seafood, and salads.  Recent awards include:  1st and 2nd place at the California Brewer’s Festival, Gold at the San Diego County Fair, Bronze at the Los Angeles County Fair, and Bronze at the Australian International Beer Awards.
