My mom came to visit me in Japan in a few months ago and sent me a drawing she did after she got home so I used it as the label of my Mono No Aware Pale Ale. Mono No Aware is a Japanese phrase that basically is about the passing of all things. It's seen in their love of the cherry blossoms, a tree whose flowers bloom for only one week a year, and the country basically goes nuts for the trees that whole week. Anyways it's an interesting look into Japanese culture Here the wiki on it And since I only brew small batches so they don't last long I thought I'd name a beer after it.
Great label! I am wondering, though, how you had an original gravity of 1.014 and got almost 6% ABV?!

Yes it is.
I stamp the caps with different text so I can tell what sort of beer there is in the bottle.

That's awesome. Good job.
You can find something on Etsy like the following:

Seems like they're fully customizable.

Here are some labels I've made for some friends who also homebrew. Their last names are Brewer (really!) and Gilchrist, hence Brewchrist. The playing around with Biblical names and iconography-stylized art ensued from there.
I'm still trying to figure out how I want to stylize the labels for my own homebrew! But drawing stuff for my friends is certainly good practice.

For a blonde ale I just bottled.
Seems pricey for just sticking a label on a pre-made 6-pack holder...
And that's only for a label on one side!
Here is what I made last night.. The only thing I dont like is the Square1 logo.. The color of the square indicates the approximate SRM of the beer.. so my red ales have red squares etc.

Hahahaha, I see it!
He's actually meant to look like the "Brewer" half of "Brewchrist," since this is his birthday beer, but it could certainly be said that my friend resembles the character as well...
LOL that is funny... I just made this last night! Must be because of Valentines Day!

I love what our friend made up for us. We've got a black lab that's our "kid" so it was a great incorporation.

Got snowed in yesterday so here's two I came up with.
The wine is dragon's blood, but the crowd around here that drinks it would likely turn their nose up at that name.

This is for my son Cheyne's wedding to Sandy. We call them Chandy pronounced (Shandy). The beer is a Hef though. Go figure. Wedding is Friday 2-20-15 and we will serve this at the reception.

Made my first labels for a homebrew comp at my local pub. Let's hope the beers do well. My first competition! Winner has a commercial batch of their beer made at a local microbrewery!

My god they're huge! What have i done? haha Any advice for next time I post a photo?
Use your favorite photo editing software to resize the images. This usually comes with an option to maintain the original aspect ratio, so you don't have to do any math.
Brew on
