The Silly Beer Name Contest by Evil Genius Beer Co. is your chance to leave your mark on a new brew, plus win $500! Your creativity could become a beer legend.
Philadelphia’s Evil Genius Beer Company has a whimsical approach to branding, known for their “Very Silly Names for Very Serious Beers” policy. They’ve recently announced the “Silly Beer Name Contest” which offers the public a rare chance to etch their wit on the can of an upcoming beer release.
Celebrating twelve years of brewing excellence and an affinity for nostalgia-driven eponyms, Evil Genius extends a playful challenge to their fans. The company isn’t just offering a token nod for the winning entry. The prize? A substantial $500 gift card to the Evil Genius taproom located in the vibrant heart of Fishtown and the chance to see your beer name suggestion printed on cans that will be distributed across their extensive ten-state network.
Evil Genius Marketing Manager Ryan Keller highlights the essence of the brand: creating a beer that’s more than just a drink—it’s a conduit for cherished memories. By melding the sensory pleasure of a good beer with the evocative power of nostalgia, each sip is an experience, an invitation to reminisce. The “Silly Beer Name Contest” is a testament to this ethos, a way to forge a collective memory with their customer base.
If you’re brimming with clever names, their social media platforms are your stage until the stroke of midnight on Friday, November 3rd. Entries will flood in through comments across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and more, with no cap on the number of suggestions a single participant can submit. Yet, originality is key—if your witty suggestion is a duplicate, only the earliest entry counts.
Once the curtain falls on submissions, the Evil Genius team will face the enviable task of selecting the top five contenders. These finalists will then be at the mercy of the public’s vote in a social media poll opening on Monday, November 6th. The victorious nomenclature will not only grace the beer can but also afford the suggester lifelong bragging rights and the aforementioned taproom bounty.
The style of the to-be-named beer is still under wraps, much like a secret ingredient, adding a layer of mystery and anticipation. What is certain, however, is that come June 2024, a new Evil Genius creation will hit the shelves—a liquid embodiment of a fan’s creativity.
Evil Genius has thrown down the gauntlet, and now it’s up to the beer lovers and wordsmiths to rise to the occasion. With the “Silly Beer Name Contest,” it’s your turn to be a part of craft beer history. Stay tuned to their website and social media for updates and may the wittiest name win!
