When you’re an award-winning brewery in Wanaka with 22 taps and a cult following, your brand collateral needs to work just as hard as you do. Ground Up Brewing came to us needing robust, good-looking growler hang tags that could handle the cold and still hold their shape. These tags are more than labels, they help drive takeaway sales, keep things compliant and make the brand look tight across every product leaving the taproom.

We print these on Formakote Natura 300gsm, a food-grade carton board that holds up in chillers and fridges without curling or going soggy. Each run includes three variations, digitally printed in crisp CMYK on the front, with black on the reverse. The tags are die-cut to a proven shape using a standing die we’ve refined over time with breweries across the country. In short: no guesswork, no delay, just tags that work and look sharp.

Thanks to our Konica Minolta AccurioPress and JWEI digital die-cutter, we keep this job fast and consistent — every time. We've run this order five times now, and since their first job in 2021, Ground Up have come back to us over 30 times for everything from keg collars to tap decals.

When quality matters and timing can't slip, they trust us to deliver—and we do.

Mean Doses Brewing is a standout on Wellington’s craft beer map, equal parts basement-born passion and slick, urban taproom. With a rotating lineup of bold beers and a strong local following, the team needed a clean, practical way to label takeaway riggers and growlers. They came to us for exactly that: high-quality, brand-forward hang tags that could hold up in fridges, look good on the bar and keep things compliant and clear for customers.

We digitally printed 1,000 double-sided tags on 300gsm Top Flight carton board — a stock tough enough for chillers and handling. Full-colour brewery branding went on the front; the reverse, a sharp black-only layout with fill-in spaces for beer style, ABV and date, plus social handles to keep the brand conversation going post-purchase. Each tag was die-cut using our standing brewery hang tag tooling.

This job is a classic example of what we do best: fast, functional and high-quality print that does the job right. With standard dies and digital press setups ready to go, we help dozens of breweries like Mean Doses get packaging and POS materials out the door without overcomplicating it.
