We have come a long way from being a small, local Amsterdam brewer. Over more
then a century Heineken has established itself, not only as a noble pilsner, but also
as a highly prestigious brand. The brand, established in 1873, combines the
distinctive elements of the red star, the Heineken name and hop leaves along with
our well-established Heineken green and racetrack label.
Of utmost importance to the creation and impact of Heineken is the proper
implementation of its visual brand identity; one that reflects the premium quality of
the world’s most international beer brand. This book will help you implement
Heineken’s visual identity properly and gives clear directions on the use of the
different representations of the brand.
Our ultimate goal is to maintain and strengthen our number one position of being
the most valuable international beer brand in the world. For this the Heineken brand
identity plays a crucial role.
As you will see there are a number of new rules and additional elements that have
been added to our core identity elements as well as additional guidelines for
photography. These are:
* amendments to the rule for star-Heineken use
* star-H-badge (to be used only in Star markets with complicit consumers)
* "Heineken, meet you there", our new global brand signature centred around
Heineken’s point of view:
"Life is more enjoyable for those who go beyond who and what they know."
* "Heineken, meet you there" font, a new font to support the global brand signature
* a silver colour that matches and supports the silver in our label
* photography guidelines

articulation of the Heineken brand identity.

The Heineken visual brand identity is based on the elements found in the most
recognizable identifier of the brand: the bottle label. The distinctive and impactful
graphics have been cherished carefully over many years and the brand identity is
highly regarded all over the world. The trademarks represent the most valuable
asset of the Heineken Company. As such they deserve to be protected and treated
with the greatest care.
The Heineken visual brand identity plays a crucial role in our continuous
enhancement of the Heineken brand. The artwork and rules throughout this manual
will help avoid costly reprints of materials necessitated by incorrect or non-
approved reproduction of the Heineken brand identifiers. While excellence in the
brand representation, both in colour and graphics, will ultimately lead to a higher
contribution to the bottom line of the company.
t h e H e i n e k e n b r a n d i d e n t i f i e r s
If you have any questions or if you need additional information
please contact Corporate Brands.
The Heineken brand identifiers:
* the Heineken racetrack label (not described in this guide because
it may only be applied on primary standard packs)
* the Heineken emblem identifier
* the Heineken authenticity logo identifier
* the star-Heineken identifier
* the Heineken star-H-badge identifier
* the Heineken green identifier & colours
The following pages outline the role of each identifier in the brand’s communications
and provide guidance for their correct use.

The emblem is the closest identifier to the Heineken racetrack label. It signals and
supports the brand’s quality, authenticity and heritage. The emblem is, as the name
suggests, a (round) adaptation of the Heineken label. Just as on the label on the
bottle it includes:
* the red star
* the Heineken bar
* an adapted green racetrack and many other typographic and
graphic elements of the Heineken label
Using the emblem
The visual relationship between each element in the emblem is fixed. This identifier
must not be re-proportioned, redrawn or modified in any way. In order to maintain
maximum impact, the immediate area around the authenticity logo must be kept
relatively clear- it must be easily seen.
Application
The emblem’s communication role is its use as the on-premise product and brand
identifier. It may be applied only on on-premise beer items such as the
beermat/coaster, illuminated outdoor sign, tap handles and tray.
* All files are available at Corporate Brands, supplied on the accompanying CD, and available on the Heineken Brand Portal.

The authenticity logo has been specially developed to communicate and reinforce
the brand’s brewing quality, heritage and authenticity. This authenticity logo is
comprised of three familiar Heineken brand elements:
* the red star
* the Heineken bar
* the flowering hop design
This authenticity logo can be used to signal or identify the brand in two ways:
* as a sign-off device on beer related items
* as a primary visual image on beer related items
The authenticity logo plays a predominant role throughout brand communication.
Application
The authenticity logo may be used as a sign-off device or as primary branding
on beer related items.
Using the authenticity logo
The visual relationship between each element in the authenticity logo (the red star,
the Heineken bar and the flowering hop design) is fixed. This identifier must not be
re-proportioned, redrawn or modified in any way without the approval of
Corporate Brands. In order to maintain maximum impact, the immediate area
around the authenticity logo must be kept relatively clear: it must be easily seen.

Star-Heineken has been specially developed to communicate and reinforce
the modernity and vitality of the brand and may be applied in packaging,
sponsorship, non-beer related items etc. Star-Heineken is comprised of two
familiar brand elements:
* the red star
* the Heineken logotype
Using star-Heineken
The visual relationship between the two elements in star-Heineken (the red
star and the Heineken logotype) is fixed. This identifier must not be re-
proportioned, redrawn or modified in any way without the (written)
permission of Corporate Brands. For vertical use Corporate Brands
recommends the star on the bottom so that Heineken can be read upwards.
Exceptions where it is best to have the star be seen on top (crowded
conference areas, or in places where the star will be obscured)
star-Heineken may be applied to be read downwards (star on top); this
application however is not the preferred choice and should only be used
when necessary.
Application
Star-Heineken may be used as a sign-off device in almost all means of
communication and as primary branding on all non-beer related items.
For items close to the beer it may be used in combination with the
authenticity logo.
The red star
The red star will not be used in isolation as the symbol or the
representation of the Heineken brand.
A different use of the red star is subject to Corporate Brands (written) approval.
* All files are available at Corporate Brands, supplied on the accompanying CD, and available on the Heineken Brand Portal.

on a white background
The unique star-Heineken may be positioned either horizontally
or vertically (read upward recommended).
* The purple line represents the minimal "white space".
on a Heineken green or dark background
The unique star-Heineken can only be used in a reversed-out
form on Heineken green and darker "neutral" colours. The white
outline around the star makes it come out more. It may be
positioned either horizontally or vertically (upward).
in mono-colour
In such cases where the star has to be the same colour as the
wordmark (for example, etched in glass), a mono-colour
application of star-Heineken is permitted.
For vertical use star-Heineken is preferably used
on a Heineken green background in an upward fashion.

Star-H-badge has been specially developed to communicate and
reinforce the brand in a sophisticated, complicit manner on non-beer
related items. Star-H-badge is comprised of two familiar brand
elements:
* the red star
* the Heineken logotype ‘H’
Main target group for this logo is the complicit consumer in a star
market. The non-beer products with star-H-badge are ‘touched by
Heineken’.
The world of star-H-badge does not press. It does not shout.
It whispers making people aware of it in a subtle, understated way.
Using star-H-badge
The visual relationship between the two elements in star-H-badge (the
red star and the Heineken logotype) is fixed. All usage has to be
approved by Corporate Brands in writing. This identifier must not be
re-proportioned, redrawn or modified in any way without the (written)
permission of Corporate Brands.
* All files are available at Corporate Brands.

Advice: Balancing Subtlety with Complicit consumers
* All usage has to be approved by Corporate Brands in writing.
* The star-H logo is selective and may only be used in
moderation when star-Heineken is no longer appropriate.
* Corporate Brands reserves the right to review, approve or
request changes to the proposed materials prior to final
artwork and production.
* May only be used with "testing" and "complicit" consumers in
exclusive premium channels in Star markets. Overusing star-H
in "complicit" activities will make it more mainstream and
therefore uninteresting for everyone.
* As premium branding on premium non-beer articles and
visibility items approved by Corporate Brands.
* Must always be placed complete with the Heineken green
racetrack shaped background.
H must be in white, star must be Heineken red.
* In moderation and only below the line, not on our product or
on our packaging.
u s i n g s t a r - H - b a d g e :
* The purple line represents the minimal "white space"
and functions as the cutting line.

Heineken green
An objective of Heineken is to reinforce green's association with the
brand and to ascertain it as the brand's primary colour signal.
The Heineken green is unique.
In order to sustain this claim, Heineken green should be a fundamental
part of every visual expression of the brand.
Because the Heineken green is unique it is difficult to describe in
standard colour terms. The colour on this page is a representation of
Heineken green and although we recognize that some Pantone colours
come close to Heineken green they do not translate the same on
different materials (metal, fabric, paper etc.) and is therefore not
permitted to use as the standard reference on final products. You may
use it as a starting point only.
Other greens may appear in communication in well-established
markets however they may never replace or eclipse the Heineken
green used globally nor have a greater presence than Heineken green
in the market.
In the back of this book you can find Nominal Colour Swatches that must
be used when determining the right ink mixes for your final colours.
Heineken grey
Heineken silver
Heineken green
The Heineken green is unique. Additional codes for commercial print
and for screen (TV/computer) use are specified at the right side. Use
the Nominal Colour Swatches when determining the right ink mixes for
your final colours.
Heineken red
Heineken red is also unique. Use Heineken Nominal Colour Samples
when determining the right ink mixes for your final colours
Heineken grey
Heineken grey is also unique. Use Heineken Nominal Colour Samples
when determining the right ink mixes for your final colours.
Heineken silver
Silver is a difficult colour to measure because it reflects it's
environment. Use Heineken Nominal Colour Samples when determining
the right ink mixes for your final colours.

The "Heineken, meet you there" brand signature
"Heineken, meet you there" is our new global brand signature. It has
been developed in order to speak out that Heineken connects people to
more enjoyable and inspiring (beer) experiences and will help us convey
a consistent message around the world.
"Heineken, meet you there" is an open invitation to our reference
consumer who wants to be connected to what is happening, but does
not want to be told what to do. It invites people to be curious and
imaginative. It invites them to go beyond who and what they know and
demonstrates our ability as a brand to understand what our consumers
want.

"Heineken, meet you there" brand signature works in a precise way. We
can only use "Heineken, meet you there" as one element, as supplied.
Do not translate "Heineken, meet you there" (keep it in English,
always). Experimentation with placement and size of the bold fixed
combination is encouraged - however keep it horizontal. Feel free to
use "Heineken, meet you there" as a sign-off for all brand
communications in your market. Be aware that the communication
should reflect our brand point of view found on the back cover of this
book. This is not to be used for packaging without prior written
approval from Corporate Brands.

The original and unique Heineken brand wordmark is exclusive to the

and has been specially designed for Heineken. Due to legal restrictions
and to protect our trademark this typeface may not be used to form
headlines, slogans, titles nor be used on non promotional standard
packaging.
For these purposes we developed 3 typefaces:
* Heineken Serif typeface (same character and style as Heineken
wordmark but more classic)
* Heineken Sans typeface (same character and style as Heineken
wordmark but more open)
* "Heineken, meet you there" (MYT) typeface (same character as
Heineken wordmark but more contemporary and matches perfectly
with star-Heineken)
the Heineken brand secondary typefaces
In addition Futura is available internationally. The wide range of
different weight available within the typeface family allows for both
flexibility and continuity. The Futura has most of all been used for
packaging, labels and headings.
It is allowed to use other typefaces. Keep in mind that the more
typefaces you use, the less Heineken brand recognition will be
achieved (specially on the long term). So please be careful with using
different typography.

Heineken Serif
The Heineken Serif has specially been developed for Heineken. It is the typeface
that is the closest to the wordmark typeface. It is very suitable for headings and
quotes. It may also be used for body copy, but keep in mind that the Heineken Serif
gives a classic impression. Therefore we should advise you to be very careful using
the typeface for this purpose. (provided on the accompanying cd)
Heineken Sans
The Heineken Sans is an adaption of the Heineken Serif. Created to give a modern
Heineken touch to the texts. It is an open, good readable typeface which is very
suitable for body copy. It is also applicable for headings and quotes.
(provided on the accompanying cd)
“Heineken, meet you there” typeface
The typeface used in “Heineken, meet you there” is also available as a full font for text
and body copy. It is a friendly, easy to read, universal typeface that is suitable for body
copy and headlines. As a brand signature “meet you there” has smiling e’s. For body
copy, however, alternative e’s are provided. The Heineken MYT fonts can be
downloaded from the Linotype website. Make sure that you purchase a properly
licensed copy.
Pdf examples of the font are available on the accompanying cd.

Futura
The Futura is a sans serif typeface. It can be used in the same manner as the Heineken
Sans. The two main differences are:
- the Futura is more common.
- the Futura gives less of a Heineken feeling
Until now the Futura has been used mainly in uppercase form on packaging.

Photography selection
Choosing the right image for a piece of communication is very important.
Here are some essential guidelines to help you select an appropriate image
or brief a photographer.
Key points for photography:
* contrast
* interesting angles
* style
* movement
* depth
* discovery
An image may not provide all of the above.
However the above pointers should be used as a guide to help select the
image that has the right values. We should at least be able to account
for a minimum of three of these key points.
Heineken
We are not a brand who has sat on our barstool and looked quietly into our beer.
We have started conversations. We have danced with complete strangers. We have
found the ultimate deep-dish pizza in Chicago, the most beautiful movie theatre in
Warsaw and the most laid back Mahjong parlor in Beijing.
Heineken will be measured not only in the quality of the beer, but also in the quality
of the relationships it encourages each drinker to cultivate. There will always be a
fresh supply of beer and a steady supply of new drinkers. Introduce yourselves.
Never stop using Heineken to help friends enjoy themselves, and to make strangers
less strange. There are a lot of people on this planet, and never enough opportunities
to enjoy them.
Our curiosity and search for enjoyment has landed us in 180 countries, and explains
why we’ll be the first beer on Mars. This is why we sponsor concerts, support cultural
happenings, and promote social occasions of every stripe and scope. The more
worldly we become, the more we connect with those not content to sit on that
barstool and look quietly into that beer.
Life rewards people who go beyond who and what they know. New worlds open up. It’s
more fun. And it’s a worldly type of fun: The kind of fun that breaks out among people
who see their differences as grounds for a conversation or a party, not an argument or
a fight. Among people who know when to take life and themselves less seriously. Beer
by beer, wherever you find it, Heineken can make the world seem a little less alien, a
little friendlier. Everybody benefits.
We like to leave our own borders. Our drinkers like to leave theirs. Wherever that
journey takes them, they’ll find Heineken.
Cheers, World.
