All the typographic details were done by Toronto based Typographer Ian Brignell. Brignell even create a typeface for Budweiser known as Bud Bold. Anheuser-Busch InBev, the owner of Budweiser and Bud Light, said that sales of its two top beers have continued to fall “in the low single digits” in the United States in the second quarter -- despite a ton of marketing for both brands. But it’s not all bad news for the company. Overall sales were up in the quarter despite the struggles in the U.S., problems in Europe and tough comparisons in Brazil following last year’s World Cup tournament. With 2016 rolling in and bringing with it a new branding overhaul to rival designs of the growing micro brewery movement, Budweiser is drawing on a new, younger crowd while trying to maintain true to its “hard way” crafted beer and established clientele.
