I just label the ones i give away.If you bottle alot its more time spent than looking at the bottle a minute or two if that while drinking it. I just code my caps.When I pour in the glass,I then just have rinse out for next use.If you enjoy making them for all the bottles and dont mind then have at.Over time you may find its another step to do if you brew often and find the short lived satisfying visual not worth it to yourself but to show off to others makes for a more enjoyable experience for you and them.Then they will want all of your beers and take your much needed bottles.Ha
 
This answer may be slightly off topic... But, if you just need the labels to distinguish between your beers and not for a fancy visual appeal to your bottle I would recommend taking a sharpie and initialing the bottle cap with whatever brew it is.

lol, you are replying to a thread that is over 5 years old. :tank:
 
I just write on the cap with permanent marker and abbreviate everything. When I give more than one type away, I throw in a "decoder" card, so they know that "AW" on the cap stands for Apfelwein, and so on. I also add a little description of the bottled product on the card. So I guess you could say the card my way of using a universal label, but it's nothing fancy.
