This is a homemade label that my family and I made for our first homebrew. Raspberry Wheat Ale. "Ted & Bo" is a family joke that started with my sister and I at a young age so we thought it was fitting for our first brew!

The small font at the bottom of the brew reads "From the "Well Hole" Wellington Colorado.

Thanks a lot man! I checked out the site for singing boys brewery, that's really cool! The organic cream stout looks great!

I really don't brag on my beer much, I like it, its good, but there are lots of good beers. The cream stout, though, really is my favorite stout. Its well balanced, between the sweetness, maltiness (from using Munich as the base malt), roastiness and bitter.

We split the batch in half and racked half of it onto cherry puree, which some of friends and family really liked.

Oh, and I'm planning on brewing a Raspberry Wheat today!

Let me know how the rasperry wheat turns out! I might have to try a cream stout of my own sometime. I have only done two homebrews so far but Im looking to start whole grain brewing once summer starts and im not so tied up with classes! Any suggestions for whole grain brewing?

Here's a recipe thread for the cream stout, with a extract version in it a few posts down, if its of interest. http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f68/singing-boys-cream-stout-149551/

When you say suggestions for all grain brewing, are you looking for resources to help you get started?

Just brewed a Raspberry Wheat today! OT but what yeast did you use bud? Label looks neat by the way, it's always great to incorporate some family flare. Makes it that much more special.

Nice man! Let me know how it turns out! And thanks man!
Umm im actually not too sure of the yeast that I used. This was my first homebrew and being so excited I really rushed into it without writing down much or keeping record. I remember it was a dry yeast recommended by my local homebrew supply store.
