12 Aug The Flatland and Triton Brewing Team Up, “Brewed On Base” Triton Brand Is Unveiled
Long-time local ad agency and Fort Ben brewer partner during the pandemic to reinvigorate Triton brand.
For Immediate Release, August 11, 2021 :
(Indianapolis, Ind.) The Flatland, an Indianapolis advertising agency and Triton Brewing, one of the original craft brewers in Central Indiana, partnered to refresh the Triton brand in 2020/21. And the pair’s hard work is getting recognized. The brand campaign won big at AAF Indianapolis’ 2021 American Advertising Awards (ADDYs) winning Judge’s Choice, one gold and two silver awards. And the campaign went on to the AAF Regional Competition to win gold honors.
“After 10 years, the Triton brand was more than ready for a refresh. We saw a huge opportunity to create a stronger brand. Many may know Triton’s RailSplitter IPA…but most don’t know that Star19, Hometown Hero or the Barn Phantom Goses are from the same amazing brewery. Our goal was to freshen things and make Triton more prominent and recognizable in the marketplace.”, said Ben Seal, principal at The Flatland.

Head Brewer/Partner, Jon Lang and David Waldman, Co-Founder at Triton, explained, “The Flatland helped us uncover our true brand story and bring it to light. Originally, Triton was named for its superior water quality. What people want in a brand is the same thing they want in a beer: Genuine ingredients. Honesty. Truth. The Flatland established a ‘Brewed on Base’ message that really resonates. We brew on a former military base—in a reclaimed mule barn, of all things. That alone is a cool story. What’s more, the trident (our logo) was carried into battle by the 97th infantry in WWI and WWII. And Triton, himself? His body was half human/half fish. Our beer comes from two worlds, too: a storied history paired with best in modern brewing techniques.”
The new “troops” are now available at retailers and restaurants throughout Indiana. Including the Triton Taproom and Bistro in Fort Benjamin Harrison.
The rebrand included new logo, messaging, packaging, in-store POP, signage, social media, and other marketing assets.
The 2021 ADDYs continued The Flatland’s streak of creating and executing award-winning campaigns. In the last seven years, The Flatland has earned 36 ADDY awards – 29 Golds, six Judge’s Choice, and one Best of Show – more than any agency in the state during that timeframe.
