Show Us Your Label

I updated the border of my labels to spice it up. The QR code links to the recipe on Brewer's Friend. What do you think?

I like the hop scale a lot! That'd be good when sharing with uninitiated folks. Overall, nicely done!

I put the bitterness in IBU's but bitterness and hop flavor are a couple different things these days.

So the bitterness level is indicated by a number.. but the hop flavor in the beer is shown in the scale.

My RIS has a really high bitterness but not much actual hop flavor.. so i would have something like IBU: 70 and then only have maybe 2 of the 4 hop cones filled.. especially since that beer ages and the bitterness hop flavor both drop out over time.

Got Cabin Fever and I live in Texas!

Starting to plan my Spring/Summer Brews. Will brew this in a few weeks to enjoy by the pool.

When I googled Tan Line, I got plenty of images along those lines!

Have to keep it tame as I have a 12 year old daughter!

Fair enough, and well played

Ok OK OK.. this time this is it.. i finally settled on what I want for my label background and neckers. I printed the previous one out and was unhappy with it. Now im locking down and keeping this format.

I like how this looks. Compared to your other label, my eyes were drawn to the QR code.

Now my eyes are drawn to your Logo.

Of course it will look a little different when it is on a bottle but still it seems people like to read top to down and Right to Left.

Where could you get neck labels already cut and sticky?

 

[Mirilis]

Just regular paper sciscors a basting brush and some milk.

 

[dcrog]

The last batch I put on I just poured about an 1/8" of milk in a plate. Dipped both sides and applied the labels.

I tried one side on my wine bottles and they wanted to wrinkle while drying. Dipping both sides took care of it on my beers.

Worked like a charm.

I just had a lol moment. My son picked out this label for the ghost chili IIPA we're going to brew in a few months after he grows some more.

Well, while my son & I were looking at the pic of the label, it hit me. What if I had a real brewery & produced it with this label? change the cartoon of my other son's face to look like the video "Fire" by The Crazy World of Arthur Brown? " I am the god of hellfire!...& I bring you (raises the bottle with label to camera)...I take you to burn!...I take you to learn!"...as he raises a glass of it to drink, then dissapears in a poof of smoke. Seems kinda cool, yet funny?...
And the video in question...

Can you tell me what program you used for the design?
Really looks good, and want mine to look as nice.

 

[Punx Clever]

My labels are pretty simple, but this is what I threw together for the RIS I just brewed.

Trying to decide on keeping / not keeping the border...

The small ones go on my tap handles and the big ones with the brewery logo, I recently made for a couple of growlers that I took to the Home Brew meeting.

 

[rowan57]

Here is my first label I have decided to go to Blackbird Brewing as a name - this is in homage to my Grandfather and my favourite band Alter Bridge. The label is again a homage to Alter Bridge and is just for fun

Winter Belgian Ale

 

[danhauk]

First brew, first label. Imperial IPA. Trying to keep it relatively simple.

 

[jthomasbutcher]

Here are some of mine, I've also put more info on the website www.butcherbrewhouse.com...feedback?

 

[gratus fermentatio]

The Will Wheat-in is good, I like it. Might be a little more recognizable with a pic of a younger Wheaton though, maybe him as Wesley crusher from STNG.
Just my 2 cents worth. Regards, GF.

 

[jthomasbutcher]

Yeah, he actually approved that one in Particular. I originally had a younger picture of him on it and then sent it to him on twitter and he sent me this back. His wife actually did this one I think.

 

[Nomofett]

All my reds will have a communist theme so for my India Red Ale I put Lenins head on an Hindu gods body....

And the oompa is an oOatMeal PAle ale...

And the Monkey Nuts is a Coconut Hefe (the numbers should be correct)...

The numbers aren't correct cause they're still fermenting and I still need to put the untappd QR code on the left side of both of them

I prefer the older one. That is how I think of Wil.

He's a good dude. Talked to him a bit about the VandalEyesPA which is pretty good.

He reblogged something of mine related to a board game I made some time ago. Super nice guy.

This is very similar to my punkin pie ale label except mine had greenish spawn type ghost flames

 

[Nomofett]

Made this a while ago but then realized how quickly ink costs add up, so I decided to have two sets of labels for each beer. I make a 6 pack with the full colorized labels and then use the "ink saver series" for the rest, and it's pretty easy to make the black and white one, 2 minutes of dragging and dropping. Saves ink costs and I can fit 9 labels on a page instead of 3!

 

[TrueMonty]

Quick and dirty but I was happy with it


I used full sheet sticker paper and cut each label out by hand, I realized while cutting out the first one that I made a terrible decision

 

[sroberts]

Big thumbs up for an occurrence of a label actually affixed to a beer!! An an excellent one at that.

First brew, first label. Imperial IPA. Trying to keep it relatively simple.

 

[brandon03]

I just made a generic label that I swap out information for each beer (colors, ABV, IBU and beer name.) I am thinking about starting to do something more unique for each beer, but not sure I want the time commitment right now to design a new label for everything I do.

 

[Bargerbrew]

View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1426635735.571848.jpg This is my first label. I actually brewed with melted snow from one of the blizzards we had up here in the Northeast in February.
