Voting in the much-anticipated GABS Can Design Awards, presented by Orora, have officially kicked off on Friday 4th August.

These awards applaud the industry’s most inventive ‘outside-the-tin’ thinkers and shine a light on the artistry in craft beer can design. And guess what? By casting your vote, you stand a chance to win one of 100 tickets to a 2024 GABS Festival session. How’s that for a sweet deal?

We’re incredibly excited to announce that our Mecharoo Yuzu Sour Hazy IPA is among the entrants this year. The design, created by the gifted Clint Weaver of Pocketbeagles Studio, embodies a unique blend of Australian and Japanese elements.

Drawing inspiration from our collaboration with Japanese brewery Coedo, the can’s design pulsates with cultural synergy and animated vivacity. The design brief sought an “anime-inspired” illustration style that marries Australian kangaroos and Japanese Yuzu fruit. The outcome? A visually stunning “Mecharoo” – a colossal robot kangaroo that’s as spectacular as it sounds, set against a backdrop that clearly nods to the Yuzu inclusion.

Voting remains open until Sunday, August 20.
