INTRODUCTION

Sinners Dance Brewing Company is a craft beer brewing company

that has attitude. Our beer will bring out the inner rock n’ roller in

you and have you dancing for more. The development of the brand

identity was influenced by the rocker lifestyle and the age-old belief

that drinking is a sin. These qualities and characteristics are unique

to Sinners Dance Brewing Company:

provocative

The Sinners Dance Brewing Company’s brand has a tough exterior,

but is enviromentally consious. Consistency and accuracy in the

way the brand is expressed and reproduced will help to build brand

strength and increase brand awareness over time.

Brand VoiceThe Sinners Dance brand voice is that of a good friend. It is human and real, provocative and individualistic. Our brand voice represents the eco-friendly rocker lifestyle. It is also born of a connection with consumers and a deep understanding of their daily lives and the role it plays in them. We have a sense of humor and a perspective on the world and our place in it. Yes, we are a serious brewery. But we are not robots. We do not communicate in corporate speak, but rather in the voice of our customers.
