First Batch/Bottles/Labels - Pa'ina Pale Ale

kainoa · Feb 19, 2010

Pa'ina is a Hawaiian word for Party. I'm half Hawaiian, Kainoa is me and my son's Hawaiian names. I put in the mongoose because there're alot of them running around here and because i thought the label needed an animal.

This is my first try at brewing, so i stuck to a pretty basic extract recipe. Came out really good IMO. Next i'll try my hand at at a Brown Ale and a Coconut Stout.

Aloha

Love the labels, they look great!

I love everything about those labels - the logo, the layout, the colors, the graphics... They look better than most I see in the "packy".

Those labels are fantastic. Well done!

Fantastic. You're motivating me to bottle.

The only problem I see is that I'm not there helping drink it... But you could send me a plane ticket to resolve this problem..

Please...........

oldrepublic · Feb 20, 2010

Great label. What medium did you use for the label?

Chudz · Feb 21, 2010

That is great. I like the patterns and contrasting colors. Definitely eye-catching.

Thanks for all the comments. I'm using a color laser printer on removable Avery labels (58164 - 3.33x4, 58163 - 2x4).

Everyone's welcome to come share the batch if you're in town! Aloha

What program did you use to make the labels? They are great!

mavandeh · Mar 21, 2010

Awesome labels! I'm jealous of your ability!

I was looking at different papers to print my images on as well. I looked up that label paper and it looks like it's a sticker? Is it hard to remove from the bottle?

kainoa · Mar 22, 2010

I used Adobe Illustrator and InDesign. The Avery labels are stickers, I haven't tried removing any of them yet though they say they're removable.
