About Nikasi White Beer Packaging

Nikasi is a packaging design for a high-end white beer. The bottle neck is carved in three dimensions and carries an embossed geometric figure of Ninkasi, described in myth as the first goddess of brewing. The bottle body is partially sanded, and the raised label is shaped to suggest the gown of the goddess. Instead of relying only on a printed label, the sculpted glass form gives the beer its identity. The bottle measures 63 mm in width, 63 mm in depth and 225 mm in height. Repeated proofing and three-dimensional modeling made mass production possible.

Unique Properties
The goal of the project is to build up a fresh new brand of high-end white beer. With the fierce competition going on the beer market, Nikasi will not stand out easily with a different label, but it will with a totally different carved bottle. On the neck, the geometric figure of Sumerian goddess of brewery is embossed. Under the neck, a delicate label is made to be the gown of the goddess. In any social occasions, Nikasi will be the special preferable choice of beer, making the consumers proud of holding it on hand.

Production Technology
The bottle neck is carved in three dimensions, the bottle body is partially sanded and the label bulges.
Design Challenge
As we know, the thickness for a beer bottle is quite limited. The carving of the bottle is not at all an easy process. Also the sharp angles on the face have made it even difficult for manufacturer to produce it by mass. Yet through over 30 times of proofing and redesigns of the 3D modeling work, the beer is now qualified of mass production.
Project Duration
2021 September to 2022 August
Operation Flow
The highly exquisite bottle stickers are designed to serve as the dress of the goddess. All these details match the theme of Nicasi, making consumers feel proud to hold the bottle in their hands and feel the leading superiority in social occasions. Exquisite embossing technology will leave a high quality impression on consumers and open a massive gap with competitors.
Research
As the brand owner of Nikasi, Tsingtao beer has made mass production for the bottle with the carved neck, which has proved the design to be effective and influential.
Inspiration
The inspiration come from the myth that Ninkasi is said to be the first goddess of brewery in human history. While most of the beers differentiate themselves from their competitors by labels. We made this bold decision to carve the neck of the bottle, telling a mysterious story of the origin of the beer in the same time.
