Droulers is the brand typeface of Doskiwis Brewing. From design studio Basora:

This is a story about love, love for the land, love for nature, love for beer and love for each other.

Dos Kiwis was born from a unique story: a craft brewery in the heart of Empordà, founded by a couple—one from New Zealand and the other Catalan. The name comes from the kiwi bird, a cute, flightless bird native to New Zealand. While the name had a strong personality, the brand lacked a cohesive narrative that tied everything together.

Their brewery is set in a breathtaking natural environment, surrounded by lush landscapes and wildlife. As we explored its surroundings, we discovered that “Els Aiguamolls de l’Empordà”, a major nesting site for migratory birds, is very close to the brewery. This insight became the foundation of the brand’s storytelling: birds as the soul of Dos Kiwis.

We reimagined the two kiwis as the hosts of a space where beer and birds coexist, creating a visual identity rooted in nature. This concept allowed us to craft a rich and flexible graphic system inspired by the life of birds—from eggs and nests to the graceful flight of those that inhabit the area.

To further differentiate Dos Kiwis, we moved away from the bold, colorful aesthetic typical in the craft beer industry. Instead, we embraced a more poetic, delicate visual identity, enhancing the romanticism of the brand’s story while making it stand out in a crowded market.
