Terra Incognita - new label

[riromero]

Comments please. My main concerns...

1) Title font color: to hard to read?
2) "Dry Hopped" text: too much?
3) Leather background texture: tone it down?

I really like it! I would move the "Dry Hopped" over to where the ingredients are listed. It looks too gimmicky like "As Seen on TV".

 

[bohdan987]

that looks good!

 

[Pappers_]

very nice! I don't have any trouble reading the name and the dry hopped isn't too much for my tastes.

love. it. I was thinking of posting some of my labels, but they pale in comparison to ones like this. Nice job.

BTW, I love the idea of putting the grains and hops on the side. I'm gonna steal that. Thanks.

NOW WITH MORE HOPS, EVEN AFTER FERMENTING.

i do like the whole paragraph about yeast settling out of solution in cold temps though

 

[bass-a-roo]

i like the old world/map theme. looks great.

Since you arn't trying to sell this (I am assuming) I would take the Dry Hopped out. I think it looks like something BMC would do to pull someone in. Maybe note that with the ingredients, or make it more subtle.

Other than that, it is a really great label, and looks worthy of a commercial brew. ONTOH the Dry Hopped! adds to the authenticity of looking like a commercial beer if that is what you are going for.

Looks really good. I also would move/remove the 'Dry Hopped' lettering. Also, I really like the background texture. The lettering for the name is slightly difficult to read, I wonder if you angled the words from bottom left to top right (once you removed the 'Dry Hopped' letters) you could either spread the letters a little more or make the font larger. Don't know if it would work.

All in all a fantastic label. Good job!

Updated. Consensus seems to be no "Dry Hopped!" - removed. Rotate and expand the title text as suggested by Jmiltime (I think).

 

[mitch171]

That Sir is perfect IMHO now! Really great call on rotating the main text, I think it flows into the subtext better now.

Looks great. I like the directions. Good for those unfamiliar with homebrews.

 

[Apollofrost]

nice work man

 

[CenCalWorthog]

Good work... really like it... interesting label but very clean.
Was thinking there needs to be a magnifying glass somewhere for the "incongita" part... like your searching for something. Maybe I'm nuts.

Good work though!

 

[MagicLarry]

Beautiful work, very well done.

 

[passedpawn]

How can I like it more?... but I do! Great! Love the name. Looks like something Dr. Livingston would have drank while traversing the dark continent. Nice.

 

[Jmiltime]

Nice work, looks really good!

 

[caphector]

I'd almost want to throw in a "Here there be dragons" somewhere but that would likely be overdoing it.

 

[passedpawn]

I would have saved the name and the label for a dark beer, probably a RIS or other expedition style beer. I think the name and theme of this label are inconsistent with a house beer, especially a pale ale.

Once again, though, I love the art.

 

[Locorcr]

Very nice love the updated with the rotated map.

 

[DubbelDach]

Great label, and I love the modifications on the 2nd version.

What font did you use on the title? It's awesome...
