"Distilling a century of tradition into a new look."

A new visual identity and website for Weiler, the reinvention of a family-run liquor distillery operating near the Bodensee since 1926.

Weiler is the reinvention of a family-run liquor distillery, operating near the Bodensee since 1926. The studio crafted a new visual identity steeped in family history, and a website that communicates the magic of making apple schnapps the old-fashioned way.

The Weiler logo is inspired by old liquor bottles from small distilleries throughout Germany. To accompany the wordmark, the studio created a custom stamp based on the “W” of the family crest, used as a seal of authenticity.

Each distillation produces around 300 bottles sold in limited batches to selected shops. The bottle's label is customisable, allowing it to adapt over the years; the distiller's name, year of production and bottle number are handwritten, and each batch is manually stamped with the family seal.

The studio created a crop of visual assets and content for the brand's social and online presence in collaboration with sister agency Friends of Friends, who featured an in-depth profile of Johannes Weber and the distillery's history.
