Project Overview

Urban Roots is a Sacramento-based brewery and smokehouse that blends craft beer with California-style BBQ. We partnered to create a series of videos showcasing their inclusive, vibrant atmosphere, distinctive food, and unique beer lineup.

The content positioned Urban Roots as a welcoming destination for diverse crowds looking for great beer, delicious food, and good times.

Business Challenge

  • Raise evergreen awareness with a “Travelers Welcome” vibe that highlights diversity and inclusivity.
  • Showcase Urban Roots as a one-of-a-kind venue offering both craft beer and full-service food.
  • Attract younger urban audiences (21–35) who want a fun, welcoming space without pretension.
  • Highlight handcrafted beers and specialty bottles that often get overlooked.

Our Approach

We developed a multi-video content suite blending expressive visuals, funk and hip-hop inspired soundtracks, and authentic storytelling. By focusing on Urban Roots’ murals, music, food, and community-driven energy, we crafted videos that felt fun, welcoming, and distinct from “craft beer snob” culture. Each piece emphasized inclusivity, creativity, and high-quality BBQ and beer.
