i've been looking through the label section and there are some fantastic designs and a ton of good suggestions so I was hoping someone could even get me off on the right foot.
I use "Cape Brewing" (it's even my log-ing) because I have a bar in my house called.... drum roll... The Cape. The short-story is my buddies and I used to have a tiny little bar set up in our little apartment that was basically a frat house once we got out of college. Since we're from Boston, we called the bar, "The Cape" so we could tell our snotty co-workers, when they asked what we were doing for the weekend, that we were "probably just heading to The Cape". The name stuck, it was my bar equip and even though I've upgraded a few times, I always like the name and I kept it.
The problem is... the bar kind of has a logo... Here is it carved into my tap-box

i'm Irish... in Boston... it's an Irish Pub... hence the knot. I think I want to keep the "logo" but I'm not sure how to incorporate that into a label design.
I almost never bottle but i have a doppel and a tripel that I really think I should bottle instead of keg and I wouldn't mind coming up with some label template that I could use going forward...
I'm just stumped on how to even start with an idea and how to lay it out.
Just looking for some brain dumps if anyone's willing to toss out an idea or two.
