2026 Chief Marketer Magazine Agency of the Year

Case Study

Brooklyn Brewery

Our multi-year Brooklyn Brewery work.

Challenge

During Pride Month, most brands make token gestures of allyship that cost them nothing, making it hard for a genuine long-time supporter like Brooklyn Brewery to stand out or be taken seriously.

Creative Solution

We deliberately targeted red states on Instagram with an uncompromising message of LGBTQ+ solidarity, explicitly stating that people who don't support the community shouldn't drink Brooklyn Brewery beer, even at the risk of losing sales.

Results

The campaign drove an unprecedented volume of meaningful, unsolicited responses and helped grow Brooklyn Brewery's unprompted brand awareness by 21%.
