Taadaaah!
Awesome!
Thanks, @JINKS - I've got a double batch this time, so I think I will do some with the train and some with the other one and see which one people like best.
I appreciate the assist, sir!![]()
Does anyone have any free font recommendations for this label? I'm just not happy with the one I've seen and the one problem with having lots of fonts is having too many fonts to choose from.
I'm looking for a nice, clean, heavy font, preferably with serifs, probably no italics.
Thanks Jinks, right now I'm going to have a look at Otama, Sling, and Fatface to make a decision.
I think Sling Bold works best for me.
any tweaks suggested?
@JINKS sure thing, here's a few snaps of the little lady:
Just to make sure though, I'm really looking for more of a line drawing of a cat's face (like the first suggestion I posted) rather than an actual photo of a cat.
@JINKS - That is great!!! Thank you so much for putting that together!
One small (hopefully) request - do you think you could squeeze "brewing company" into the bottom part of the circle as opposed to just "brewing"?
@JINKS - hey, man, I hope all is well!
My wife decided that I want to go with this label for Smoked Wheat:

Can you add "5%/Vol" and "355ml" to this?
Thanks! If we make it to your town in the enxt month or two, I will bring a bottle or two!![]()
Jinx,
Thanks for responding to my PM. I'd like ANY revisions you see fit.
Perhaps some wording in the blank space between the badge border. "Artisan Ales to Share with Pals" or "Est 2008" or "Pembroke Pines, FL"
What is that brewlihan font? I'd like to try it bigger.
Here is what I have so far, is this what you were thinking?View attachment 285397
I kind of like the Brewlihan bigger so if I can get the font name from you I'll use it to make a cleaner version.
Thanks for the quick turn around JINKS
Font is called CRACKED, but it's from an older version of MS word.
I think the additional requests for lettering might have been too much. Please remove the aforementioned requests: "Est 200" and "Artisan Ales..."
I do want to leave the location though. IF you can get a font similar to CRACKED, I'd like the location to match, or . I am not tied to CRACKED, but I like the blocky raw feel to it and the contrast of the well dressed man.
@JINKS - hey bud, I hope all is well! I have two for you, if you don't mind - and I do think that they are going to be quite interesting!
I've learned how to attach photos to posts (I think), so I'll give it a try here - if it doesn't work, let me know, and I can try again or email them to you.
The first is my Grapefruit Honey Ale (5.5%/vol, 355ml, green background):
I couldn't find a "peasanty" picture to use, but that's okay for two reasons:
1. When I think of grapefruit, I think of that old-school "crate art," which is awesome!
2. The part of North Dakota where my ancestors settled is cattle country, and rodeo is THE thing there - so this works perfectly!
The next beer is my Jalapeño Saison (6%/vol, 355ml, red or maybe green background?), but since I used a red chile pepper instead of a jalapeño, I am calling it "Piment Rouge Saison" (French for "red pepper saison):
The picture I found is peasanty, colourful, lively, and it looks like everyone is having a good time.
I think these pictures are good, but if you find something "better," please feel free to give it a whirl, and we'll see what we have.
Very much appreciated, as always!
