Left Field Brewery Branding & Packaging Refresh

CODO Design – Left Field Brewery

Left Field Brewery—named for their love of baseball—is one of Toronto’s most popular breweries. After six years of business, they decided it was time to do some housekeeping. Left Field’s original logo was developed on a shoestring budget with the help of some friends. This approach worked for a while, but pernicious design and layout issues reared their ugly head with every. single. new. release. On a grueling “Rotation Nation” schedule—not to mention constant event promotion and merch design—these problems added up to one big headache.We flew up to Toronto and worked with Mandie and staff to dive into Left Field’s history and build on what was already working. Ultimately we created a robust new identity system (complete with merch-ready secondary and tertiary icons) and a packaging template that they can manage in-house (heartbreakingly) without having to work with an outside designer.The work has been well-received, and the new look is helping Left Field grow into the next phase of their revered brewery.
