Show Us Your Label

[Cultkid]

In homage to THE 30 L's of BIERMUNCHERS "SWAMBO SLAYER" that's still in the fermenters.

Still in rough form.

Also, if you're going with a blonde, you might want to change the color of the swmbo on the motorcycle's hair to blonde as well...

Holiday Stout that I am handing out this year.

What paper did you use to print these on?

 

[Garrett]

redid my label taking tips and inspiration from the better looking labels on here. Kinkos has a paper that has a sticky back, so I got them printed there. Laser printer, sticky paper, cut to size for me, $1 each? sounds like a winner.

What is the paper type called at kinkos? looks awesome.

Finally got the first batch photographed... I have made the next few larger for 22s, around 5x4.

What type of paper did you print on?

Hey, I really enjoy the Allagash labels on the coolship series and FV13. Anyone have an idea on how to reproduce those labels? Have any of you tried block letter printing before? There's a bunch of kits in craft stores but most use too big of letters.

It'd be easier to just find a block letter font on a site like dafont.com, and print them. If you use a program like Gimp (free) you could design them in there, and then change the colors to make it only one color.

What is the font you used there for the main name on your label? I really like it.

I feel like it wouldnt nearly look the same and not as authentic. I'm willing to work hard to develop a block press for all my gueze blends

One of the things I would like to try (but haven't yet) is creating my own wood-cut blocks to print myself. You could design by hand or computer assisted, and then carve the wood blocks and ink them yourself for a truly hand-crafted artisanal craft brew.

Guess which hops were used in this IPA...

Love that...is that a Haiku? I love the flow of the text; very poetic.

It's not quite a Haiku which I believe follows a 3 line, 5-7-5 syllable flow pattern. It's just something I came up with based on the 3 varieties of hops I used; namely Chinook, Cascade, and Cluster. It was either that or call it the 3C's or "Killer C's"... but when I found the image I wanted, this seemed to lend itself better.

This is for a beer I brewed Dec 21, the day the Mayan Calendar said the world ended. If the world really did end, I'd never be able to drink it, so I said "eff your mayan calendar!" and the name kinda stuck!

Sweet Stout with added cold-pressed mexican espresso. My sister-in-law did the logo. Entered in a local brewing contest, here's hoping i win (entry into GABF is the prize!)

Here's my first label.
It's a pale ale recipe that is going into my keg next week.
What do you think?

 

[Shred]

New cap for my upcoming Habanero IIPA

 

[geckholm]

here is my first label, for a beer I made with grains of paradise.

 

[Paramecium]

This one actually needs a small introduction:

I play EVE Online - an MMORPG game, the likes of "World of Warcraft" but in space.

Solar systems in EVE have security ratings - 0.0 to 1.0. 0.0 is "lawless" space - anything can happen. It's a rather crazy place in which to "live" and play.

To me, it's the perfect environment for a Black IPA - in of itself a rather "lawless" beer...

EVE Online has a huge following. I think the developers (based in Iceland) would love something like this:

(Pretty easy to make, considering that the developers have all kinds of screenshots available to borrow.)

Thumbs up for a fellow EVE player! Nicely done!

 

[Vernacular]

I use Labelizer a lot... most of these are generated from that. Sone are done in Word or publisher and saved as jpegs.

 

[bknifefight]

New cap for my upcoming Habanero IIPA

It takes away of the evil theme you have going on when your font looks like it's embroidery lol

 

[BodfishWill]

...well...that's certainly not racist.....

 

[jaydog2314]

first AG batch on new equipment that I bought courtesy of a tax return, it was suppose to be a regular IPA but a miscalculation/error in brewing made the ABV way too high, so it's got ABV range of a IIPA but IBUs are borderline low for IIPA

 

[GarageMonk]

Just got my labels done for my Maibock #2. The problem is I drank most of it already!

 

[Eladaos]

I finally think up the brewery's name and created logo, so I was able to put some labels on my bottles. This is my second batch.

 

[yewtah-brewha]

quite a racy ad for them days. I like it!

[mr_rogers]

Here is another that I made this morning. I may be wasting my time since i'm kegging now...

Nah, you just need fewer of them now!

Nice...but it seems strange in its placement or maybe its too small IMO.

Thanks. You mean label on the bottle? If so, then I agree. I will put it higher next time. Or maybe bigger size, but now I have 8 labels on one A4 page which I like because it is cheap to print (I am paying 1$ for one page).
