Project Overview

A limited-edition beer series created for Raudonų Plytų Alaus Dirbtuvės — the experimental brewery known for its creative, small-batch releases.

Each year, the brewery brews a special IPA to mark IPA Day, exploring new flavor and design directions.


Concept & Design

This year’s theme revolves around the birds of Lithuania’s seaside — a loose, playful reference to the coastal spirit surrounding the brewery. The design motif is a witty interpretation of each beer’s name, captured through bold, constructivist-inspired compositions. Minimal color palettes, sharp geometry, and carefully chosen details create a distinctive and instantly recognizable visual tone for the series.
