I like the simple, parchment paper, old school look. Maybe make the bomber bigger and more the focus? "Bomb", "Run", "Ale" could be writen, shaped, and placed as the last three bombs out? Not sure it would look good since the words might be too small or too big as bombs? I always go through a few proofs and tweak here and there. I love making labels!

I think it looks great as it is. The only thing I would add is maybe what type of beer it is. Is it Wit, a Stout, an IPA, etc... There's plenty of room along the bottom center where you could plug that in.

Love the quote on the side too. Give 'em something to read while they pour.

I love it!!!!!!

I grew up watching old war movies with my dad and this label takes me back to those days.

Man! I love this section of HBT. Seems like every day is Christmas with someone else kicking out awesome labels.....

I like the look, but after the Woodstones' comment especially, how about this- increase the size of the bomber and have three bombs with text on them -"BOMB" "RUN" "ALE"?

I would also accept a silhouette of a man riding a bomb like a steer swinging a cowboy hat around.... Strangelove?

I like it though, I'djust increase the size of bomber and bombs, decrease the number of bombs and fill the space. Nice label!

I give it a solid A

That's a great label - I'd buy it if I saw it on a shelf.

New version with...

1) Bigger plane.
2) Type of beer.

I don't have the talent or energy to add text to the bombs, etc...
