Vault City brews some of the boldest sour beer in the UK. Their Portobello taproom needed to taste the same.

We turned a simple venue into a dark, immersive brand home. Gothic-industrial details sit against moody contemporary tones while custom illustration and neon add the mischief.

Wayfinding and signage carry the story through the room, all delivered on a tight schedule.

Modern sour culture with an indie Portobello soul.
