22 May Windhoek Pure Beer Society
The fictional Pure Beer Society where the latest Windhoek TV ads are set has been reimagined in real life bars and taverns. Headed up by The Jupiter Drawing Room, the extension of the TV campaign has seen existing venues in Centurion and Mamelodi become Windhoek Pure Beer Society HQs. A further 18 are planned to launch around the country during the remainder of the year.
The concept was created when TJDR was approached to created branded merchandise and furniture for key outlets.
Three local artisans were chosen to create bespoke pieces for the venues. James Mudge, known for his clean lines and use of natural materials, created a large communal table, which features a timeline of the history of Windhoek beer and the beer tasting process engraved in the wood. Lighting expert Ryan Matchett designed a bottle pendant and vat lights using recycled Windhoek bottles, brass and copper. Jared Odell designed a chair and a small table, using green Windhoek crates as bases.
The roll-out of these venues correlates with a new brand campaign, focusing on men who are ‘Made of the Right Stuff’. The campaign tells stories of inspirational men with the first ambassador being mountaineer Sibusiso Vilane.
