    What do you think?

    The first one is a Dogfish 60 minute clone from Sam's book.
    The second one is a Hefe-Weisen with lots of lemon and orange.

    I like the lables and like where your going with your theme. If I could change one thing I would put a stroke or outline around the catfish and flounder images. I think it would look great.

    Nice. I wonder how it would look without the white rectangle around the fish images? Or add a border like mentioned previously.

    Well Catfish Butt is already bottled so nothing I can do about it. I'll give a shot at removing the white around it. I'm not that great with Photoshop and my 16 year olds not here. I might just wait for him to get home.

    I have a 9% IIPA label I'm working on as well. I'll post it later.

    Took out the white and put in a drop shadow on them...I dunno about the hammered head, but the other ones turned out pretty well.

    These are really nice. The single theme works really well. For the hammerhead, since the red background is dark, how about a white drop shadow? But they all look great the way they are regardless.

    I have to do something with the hammerhead, it looks cheesy. I think it needs to be bigger.
    What you did to the flounder is awesome.

    Can I send all of my labels to you?

    One last piece of advice. Bring up the 12 fl. oz & abv to the same line as the imperial pale ale line. Then move all the bottom text down toward the bottom, take the top brewery text off of the top edge (down about 1/8"). Then enlarge the central image... VOILA! Just my $.02. Otherwise I think they look good.

    Schlante,

    I think it's a constant work in progress.
    I'm thinking of changing the brewery name to Bottom Fed Brewers.
    What cha think?

    Bottom Fed Brewers flows a little better, I think.
