My Labels. Not as nice as some on the forum, but I like them.

The reference is to the story of Gideon from the book of Judges. The story begins with Gideon threshing wheat while hiding in a wine press. The Angel of the Lord appears and says to him, "Hail mighty warrior! The Lord is with you." The Hebrew is from that passage. The image is one of Gideon's request to God to have a fleece wet with dew and the ground dry so Gideon could know that God is with him and will protect him against the Midianites. I'm a bit of a Bible geek (well just a geek in general), so most of my beer labels so far have had biblical themes.

Edit: I forgot to add the reference if you're interested. It's from Judges 6:12
 
This is a label I made for a Russian Imperial Stout that I just bottled.

It's easier to read at full resolution. The quote next to Drago says "I will crush you!".

Here's my first label, hand drawn (handcrafted). I plan to try out some of these label programs, but I was pleased with my first attempt none the less. Barracuda Pale Ale.

Here is mine so far, not quite finished yet. My brewery name is Happy Beaver Brewing Co. and I am leaning towards "Everything is better with a little beaver" for the tagline

my girlfriend drew this one for me. its an english brown ale with a minimal amount of fuggles hops and over steeped earl grey tea for tannic bitterness and then dry hopped with more tea in the secondary.

I tasted this one at the JRHC meeting this past month. Good beer.

my new one for the wife's batch of hard lemonade i am about to bottle.

Looks nice. I would maybe make her drink the same color as what's in the bottle?

If its lemonade it may look like piss though, lol.
 
I love it. Very fitting for someone in Bremerton. I have Uncles and cousins that work at the shipyard.

Oh really? That's cool, I can see the yard from my house! Those people make A LOT of ca$h. Me and my brewing partner went with Trident because Bangor houses the Trident submarines in Silverdale. That ship in the logo is the U.S.S. Bremerton.
 
Here's the ones Im using for variations on my ale. One oaked and one spiced with christmassy flavours :) ... btw, Im 5'1", stocky, long haired and bearded, hence it's Dwarven Ale ;)

My God, I am seriously embarrassed after seeing the quality of labels on this thread. Here is a very rough set of labels for my brewing on demand (BOD) tap handles for my 3 keg garage 5cf keezer.

Basically just to know which one you're pouring.... don't judge... Ok, judge... whatever.
