Was getting tiered of washing labels off my bottles so overhauled my labels and brewery. Thanks for all the tips I picked up from this thread.

The elastic band will be replaced by a string.

How are you attaching it to the bottle on the top? Tape?
 
I've stuck it under the "revenue stamp" that goes over the lid.

Thought I'd loop a string around the neck of the bottle it may look neater than an elastic band.

The only thing ill change is some of the text on the "toe tag" for every brew and possibly print the " toe tag" on different color paper to easily tell the batches apart.
 
Very, very nice. What font is that? Got an IPA I need to bottle and label.

Not sure what the font is, used the labelmaker app pitched in the first page or so of the thread though. Very nice application and for like $5 you have access to a ton of templates.
 
I like the toe-tag. However I'd stick with rubber bands as they're cheap and easy to put on the bottles.
 
Hey Guys/Gals,

Long time reader, but I just registered. My friends have always asked what I call my brew and I had never really come up with anything. I've decided I want my labels to be Baltimore themed (that is where I live) in some way, but I'm not set on the name yet. Anyways here are a couple of labels, let me know what you guys think.
 
Baltimore, those are some of the best looking labels I've seen. That is a beer I'd buy at the store

Awesome labels. I had to go back and read what you wrote cause i thought you were looking for a brewery name, but I really like "Baltimore Brau." I guess the only reason to do that is because there is the commercial brewery "D.C. Brau" close to your south. Anyways, once again, great labels!
 
Yeah I do like the name BUT I did know about DC Brau before. I'm decent at coming up with label ideas but not so much with names.

Thanks for the feed back and complements!
 
The torn edging is a nice touch over cut edging.

+1 My last labels were kind of rustic but I felt they were missing something, and now I see exactly what. These labels definitely hit my top 5 faves in this thread. Great job BaltimoreBrau!

Just made this using my customizable template label. Going to be bottling tonight hopefully.

Woodcut woo!

I really like this, I think it will look great on a bottle. Let's see it when you bottle it!

This is one I came up with while the power was out during the storm, just need to brew one to put it on.
 
What software do y'all use to create your logos?

I think Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop are the way to go. But, they have a bit of a learning curve and aren't cheap. There is a free software called Inkscape that is sort of a illustrator-lite that you might look into if you don't already have illustrator and aren't ready to throw down the money to buy it.

Inkscape is the open source program similiar to Adobe Illustrator and is for vector graphics (scalable images like logos and what not)

Gimp is the open source program similar to Photoshop.

I use Gimp for my templates/labels. I was never able to master inkscape
 
First one is for the bottles (only did 6). Second is laminated and hung from tap on the keezer where my first keg of beer now sits finishing it's "set and forget".
Last is just a quick mock up of a brewery logo. Beerlabelizer.com is nice for the basic stuff.
