This essay aims to explore the use of neolocalism and social terroir by small-scale, independent breweries in Sweden. This will be achieved through a collection of quantitative data, semiotic analysis and discourse analysis of a selection of beer labels from breweries located in Skåne. A total of 22 beer labels are analysed through quantitative analysis and four are further analysed through semiotic- and discourse analysis. The results show that neolocalism and social terroir is used by a few of the researched breweries. These breweries use graphic elements such as images, product names and text with a local, historical and cultural connection in order to appeal to their targeted market.
