In a tight finale decided by a single point, Karbach Brewing Company took first place in the Colored by INX Can Design contest with their Dunkels & Dragons can, a German-style dark lager inspired by the Dungeons & Dragons universe.
The design edged out four other finalists after intense voting on social media and the final jury decision. Among the competitors were Great Lakes Brewing, Boulevard, Left Hand, and New Belgium.
Karbach’s proposal stood out for its visual narrative and creative use of the INX Color Catalog, utilizing four metallic colors from the industry standard. The design was developed by a multidisciplinary team in Houston and will be recognized in the upcoming edition of Color Perfection Magazine.
