A couple of houses down from us lives a proud home brewer that (I can only imagine) would be happy as happy can be should he have his own set of labels and collateral materials to help promote his brew. For now, he shall remain content showing up at parties with a full pitcher or two, leaving the professional-looking packaging to other fellow brewers.
We at HUB Collective would like to share with you (and hopefully your readers) a letterpress beer label we designed and produced for an avid homebrewer who longed for his very own labels. The label allows him to hand write on the label the type of beer brewed, its bottling date, and alcohol by volume. To round out the Roscoe experience, we also had posters and t-shirts silk screened.
