My label. My portrait is on the label :)

Nice! And you got the color to show up, that's my biggest problem with craft paper

Yeah, I had to run the printer on the highest-quality setting, and yet it still looks like it's medium-quality. The paper absorbs a lot of ink!

. Looks great, very cool! I like the first one, lol. :mug:

Thanks. I went with the lettering on the second one, and IDK why the paper looks pink in that scan. I scanned it twice & it came out looking like that both times so I had to go with it, but the paper looks more like real-life in the first pic.
 
Been a while since I did anything experimental with my beers so I've not had a chance to make any Niiralan Riviera labels, but yesterday I filled up a fermenter with an APA made with all Vienna malt and a mix of European and American hops.

The title is (once again) a sort of pun. The "ViennAPA!" part can be read in Finnish as a response to the first line, i.e. "American Pale Ale? No, it's a Vienna Pale Ale!" Gotta keep the tradition of horrible names with horrible labels. =)

ABV wasn't supposed to go that high, but I ended up with an efficiency of over 80% instead of my normal ~72-73%, so I ran with it. I could always have thinned it down a bit with more water, but that would have diluted the hoppy goodness as well!
 
This is my basic theme (type/name/specs would run above or underneath). Going to replace it with something less cartoonish soon though.

Shouldn't the boat be rotating opposite the direction they are rowing? (Oops... I mean broat...)

I like the textured paper. Kraft paper would look good, too. Not crazy about the outline font...
