And just caught the spelling error, doh!

Does anyone know how to upload and resize to half the original size? My uploads are HUGE! Apologies.

You can resize through the image hosting sites like imgur.com. Give you an option to resize during that on HBT directly.. No clue

Brewing this on the 18th...

I like your labels nicely done.
The fractional IBU caught my eye on the red ale, if the first one is suppose to be funny maybe change 100+ to 100.24IBU on the IPA.

My Dogfish Head 60 Minutes clone label.

Here's the label for the RIS I am getting ready to brew. Hoping it's ready for Christmas so I can give out some bombers as gifts...or keep them all for myself.

That's a bad ass label. Well done. I need to work on mine. It looks a bit plain compared to yours.

Thanks. Had extra time to work on it since my Cats bowed out early from March Madness. Noticed 2 things though...1 typo, and I labeled it as a 12oz bottle, but I am planning on bottling it in 22oz bottles.

If your anything like me you like seeing new labels that are made by you fellow home brewers. I hope others will post their labels here so it is easier to see the final labels in one spot.

Here are my first three:

Winter Storm IPA Discussion

Pumpkin Pie Ale Discussion

So let's see those labels

EDIT: I an effort to try and keep this thread for pictures i've added links to the"idea" threads about my labels. I love feedback (both positive and negative) but I'm hoping to make it so you can scroll through and mostly see pictures

I'm a newbie -- doing my first batch today -- only a 1 gallon as I don't want to blow the first one and loose all that golden deliciousness -- lol -- Your labels are so very impressive -- I can only hope that one day I can do that.

Let me welcome you to the forum, Catherine. Labels are fun to design, for people that like that, but it is what's inside the bottle that really counts!

Here is another label I created for what started out as a Red Rye IPA. This is my 2nd time to brew it so I changed the hops and yeast on this batch. It has turned out great but with a fresh citrus/fruit hop taste and smell with a nice finish. I couldn't call it RyePA or Red IPA those names didn't fit the flavor profile.

Looking for feedback on this wrap around label.

This will be distributed at a conference that I've been going to for the last nine years now. I usually just grab a bunch of beer from the local brewery, but this time I decided to make my own and use this as a marketing opportunity.

Let me know what you think and what you would change.

My labels are boring...and I put them on these cans.

You guys put out some nice looking work. I just started making labels in Nov 2017 with adobe CS2 from 2001 maybe. Yes my computer is that old. My favorite is my avatar but here are my few others.

Not sure if i had posted mine recently, I had posted them on another forum and thought I'd share them here too. I also print my own on regular paper. I use a edited .pdf file from Brooklyn BrewShop and also Beer Labelizer. I print them, then cut them out, and attach to the glass bottles with milk, when I still used the plastic 1 Liter bottles I used a glue stick. The labels come off easily in hot water when you rinse them after drinking the contents. Here's a couple of my recent labels.

Finally got some time to work on a label. This one is for my latest batch of mead.

I use my dog s as well...

Wow guys, these look great!
I wish I had so much will to design those labels, stick them to every bottle and them remove them when bottling next batch...
I'm too lazy to do that, so I just use different color caps and 19mm round labels on them – not much info, but you can identify them easily, and the biggest benefit for me – just toss it away along with the cap – no need to remove labels from bottles

Here are some of my cap labels. (sorry, I'm form Europe, so these are in my language)

Those kinda neat. it's amazing that you can fit all the info on them and it still is readable. Do you have a label or template file that you use? Which round labels are these, Avery ??
Thanks.

Not much info, but the basic info fits on it. The name, style and ABV is fairly easy visible, but you have to "stretch" your eyes a little if you want to read the bottling date , but it's readable .
It's some no-name brand from China, I ordered from eBay. They're A4 sheets with 117 x 19mm round labels. I don't have a link because I bought long time ago, but you can find them pretty easily, just search for "19mm adhesive labels".
Yeah, I have a template that I made myself in Photoshop, I edit and print these from Photoshop.

I find doing the labels to be part of the fun and charm of homebrewing. I get your point, my way around it is I only do labels for brews that are specifically mine (not from a kit), and that I will repeat. For example, I will always do an Irish Ale, I will always do a wit, and I will always do a cider. So I have labels for all of these. I wash the bottles carefully and reuse the labels for the same type of beer the next time around, even if I change the recipe a little. I don't produce a lot, so I never have two of the same type of brew on hand... avoids confusion.

I do really like your cap labels... I'll have to look into that!

I know I posted the first rendition of this a couple of pages back, but I got all of the bottles labeled and we made some changes to the label. Check it out...

I started like this, and continue like this – super convenient!

A few of the labels I've made since I got back to the States after 9 months in Vietnam:

Dumb question, but what's "brewers mark"?

That would be a play on the Bourbon called Makers Mark. They have red wax on their bottles.

Just wanted to say these are gorgeous.

Something simple I threw together back when I started and made less than 10 gallons of cider a year:

Because I can. That's why
