Lazarus Brewing

 

LAZARUS BREWING

From the earliest drafts of the business plan to putting the final touches on the building exterior, Cryder Makes partnered with Lazarus Brewing to pursue a fresh take on the traditional brewery model. To differentiate Lazarus in a crowded marketplace, we tapped into the ancient history of beer itself and brought it back to life with a simple insight that focuses on the unique way that beer can connect people in unlikely ways.

It’s not enough to just make great beer. We wanted Lazarus to champion the unique way that sharing a pint can help you connect with someone you may have known for years, or just met.

Our singular mission, passion and purpose is to Share Life

"Let there be Shared Life"

It's a special moment when you see the team turn the lights on 3 years of blood, sweat and tears.

 

Cryder Makes lead the creative process in every aspect of the brand on this incredible journey; from working with the architectural team to commissioning artisans, spacial experience design and sourcing furniture, fixtures, and vintage Moroccan rugs. We even created a one of a kind fine art sculpture named Achilles, an armor plated elk.

 

 

Would you spend $1000 on a beer glass? You might if we engraved your name on it and it also entitled you a free beer every day for the rest of your life.

There was once a time when glass was rare. So rare in fact, that an ancient abbey might need to share one cup amongst many patrons. Early “share cups” had two handles and were passed from patron to patron, and served as inspiration for both the Patron Saint Glass and the logo mark for Lazarus Brewing.

We commissioned renowned glass artist Treg Silkwood to execute 300 Patron Saint Glasses. Amongst his many accomplishments, Treg is considered a master of venetian blown glass, has taught at Waterford in Ireland, and directs the Bay Area Glass Blower…

We teamed up with Valo Visuals to create a nice little film to help us spread the Patron Saint vibe in Austin. 


We invited Austin Vloggers ATXCoffeeVibes to come share life. We sweetened the deal with coffee, beer, tacos and joy.
