American Rebel

As a nationally distributed beer brand under a publicly traded company (NASDAQ: AREB), American Rebel required a bold, unifying brand identity to match its patriotic, freedom-first ethos. We led the creative direction from the ground up—developing campaign themes, brand messaging, and visual assets that captured the rebellious spirit of the brand. Our work helped shape the national launch and marketing efforts across digital, retail, and event platforms, ensuring a consistent and impactful presence in a competitive market.
