Show Us Your Label

[BargainMugs]

Awesome government warning! :rockin:

 

[Shift]

Appearantly there was no color left in the printer, kind of screwed me over.
But some crayons for the 50 and random pencils for the badboy saved the day.

Badboy IPA:
This:

Turned into this:

50 Centennial, was supposed to be:

what i got:

Altough this look kinda works, feels more like a lambic though.

 

[HokieBrewer]

I presume there were 9 hop additions on the 50 centennial?

 

[Shift]

Damn, didn't think about that, if I brew it again for next summer that will be fixed.

 

[alexdagrate]

I use the network black & white laser printer at work, so I'm strictly a black & white label guy.

 

[unionrdr]

What you've got there is the original "whiskely". It's been made since colonial times up through prohibition. Classic stuff with the ever illusive one on the front!

 

[jimmayhugh]

npauley88 - my deepest apologies, but I thought your "brown victory" post was a continuation of jimmayhugh's post above yours, taking "wrong" to a whole new level. On the other hand, jimmayhugh - there's your next label if you want to push the envelope!

Me?!? Push the envelope??!?

Here's some others either in the bottle or in the fermenter:

Working on designing labels for two wedding brews SWMBO and I are making as favors for our guests, but wanted to get your thoughts on labels we have already made. Thoughts? Suggestions?

First label ever made

[/URL][/IMG]

Beer is named after our friend Josh-O (he loves all things pumpkin)

New Belgium 2 Below Clone

Belgian Blonde

[/URL][/IMG]

Goat Sh*t Bread (was supposed to be more of an Amber but ended up as a Red...stories from a friend overseas in Afghanistan was inspiration for the name)

[/URL][/IMG]

Our second batch of the Storm Lake - back by popular demand but with an updated label

[/URL][/IMG]

Session Ale

[/URL][/IMG]

Weiss Bier (this and the Amber will be our two wedding favor brews)

[/URL][/IMG]

IPA (SoBoRo is abbreviation for road we live near)

Our test batch Amber for one of the wedding brews

 

[Hang Glider]

lextasy, your labels (post 200) are nothing short of professional!

 

[azbrews]

great lookin!

 

[JFryauff]

Some we put together for fun.

 

[JWS]

Just really getting started making labels and using Photoshop. I've had the program forever, never used it until about a week and a half ago. I made my first label (Irish Red) use photoshop, and lets just say I'm not posting it for a reason.....it was not good.


Here are my second and third brews:

I wanted to get some sort of similarity between all the labels so figured this would be good to start. Like I said I just started with Photoshop, so still learning how to use things.

 

[kappclark]

Totally smoked by all these great labels .. great job!

 

[sjjn]

Started on my Dunkelweizen label

 

[Cheektronic]

Turned into this:

It's Slim Thugga, motha f**ka!

That's awesome

 

[pauljmccain]

Here's my first attempt. After looking at some of the ones on here, I think I'm going to put a little more space on the side (currently 3x4) and add a govt warning and "bottled on" indicators similar to JWS. Also might chop off the corners to make it more diagonal but I was photoshopped-out for today.

 

[Thefirebuilds]

...working on a label for the Scotch ale (with Groundskeeper Willie on it lol) and one for the Pumpkin ale.

This was for my sister's cider: (it was meh. This year it's going to sit much longer to settle out, and I won't let her impatience get the best of me.)

I think we got a ringer. These are awesome

 

[ZooKeeper]

this is what we brewed most recently, so i'll post this label:

love it!

 

[Thefirebuilds]

Here is my first.

 

[mcaple1]

The new label setup I will be continuing for a while...
This one for my 150ibu 7.5% dipa. Truly a brew I am proud of.

Did you have a chemical analysis done on that...it's supposed to be theoretically nearly impossible to get over 100 IBU's, needless to say 150!

 

[mcaple1]

Just threw this together in the last 10 minutes here at work.

 

[MasonCreek]

@braceful, absolutely love the Grinch story! (You labels are great too.)

New Belgium 2 Below Clone

 

[unionrdr]

That Grinch story is so cool! You don't see that kind of imagination too often on here...:rockin:

 

[ForrestWoods]

That has to be my favorite, most creative label I've ever seen! I'm a huge suess fan, I have a vast vintage book collection I read to my son every night

 

[lextasy23]

I think we got a ringer. These are awesome

haha thanks man.

Working on:

Scotch Ale
Spiced Pumpkin Ale
Strawberry Summer Ale

 

[lordbeermestrength]

 

[Beezy]

I have to work on this. My first try.

Hey All,

Posted this up yesterday but this seems like the best place for 'em, put these Imperial Stout Labels together for a serious RIS style that will be aging until about Xmas this year (at least)

(Can't post images for some reason, anyone know why that might be?)

Thank you for posting, good sir.

 

[unionrdr]

I have to work on this. My first try.

"hey Wolfy! I'm your worst nightmare!" Pork Soda,anyone? I love that video...

 

[sleepydave]

Finally corked up The Orchard, an 11.6%abv american barleywine with loads of citra and centennial late additions aged on apple brandy soaked hungarian and french oaks and finally dryhopped with calypso.
bottled with t58.

 

[StittsvilleJames]

Here is my newest label which I created in Gimp.
Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

Beautiful! Send me a bottle?

 

[sleepydave]

only 3.6 gallons 12 750s and 9 12oz were all I got out of this batch and it's all spoken for save for two 750s for myself and a single 12oz for carb testing in about a month.

But for what it's worth a buddy of mine posted the base recipe on http://hopville.com/recipe/645131/home-brew/david-sakolskys-insanity
If you have any questions feel free to send me a message.
Cheers!
Dave

 

[bknifefight]

Thanks, Dave. I was only half serious about you sending a bottle! Any reason why you did a small batch or did you lose a lot due to blow off?

 

[sleepydave]

If i had more I wouldn't mind at all! Blewoff about a gallon and lost almost a half gallon to dryhopping.

 

[mcaple1]

 

[WoodenEagle]

Pretty Basic, but the drawing took so long I didnt feel like spending any more time on it

 

[shawnguinn]

This is all my labels I have up to date. I have them printed on clear labels and stick them to bottles.
