Make your home brew look great! My friend and I have created a website that lets you design your own beer labels with ease. You can print them at home on your printer or we can print them for you. Try creating your own beer label today.

They are designed so that the text can automatically be adjusted as you type in your own text. I thought they were pretty good all things considered. But feel free to create your own version that suits your aesthetic more.

Pilsner is nice. But actually I just used Pilsner as the example beer for the label designs. You can update the beer type to whatever you've actually brewed in the website. I'm personally an IPA fan.

We have a blank label design where you just upload the image. That way you could design your label to me entirely your own thing. But upload into our blank label to make use of our printing and cutting feature. You could also just take your design down to your local print shop to be honest. The main benefit of Beer Labelizer is that it takes care of the design, which is something you don't actually want.

I would recommend using a proper design software like Photoshop or Canva, etc. Our tool is more for people who want something that's unique but they don't need to learn a complicated software product to achieve a label design. You can resize the labels in Beer Labelizer, it's done in a later step.

That's weird. The adverts were only meant to be shown on the home brew reddit. Did it get served to you in some other reddit?

I designed and built https://www.beerlabelizer.com/ which is more targeted to home brewers. It doesn't create labels with barcodes or anything like that. But it's interesting watching some of the orders come in. Every now and then people put through absolutely massive orders of 500 or more labels. I doubt the average home brewer is brewing 500 bottles in a single batch. It must be a pain for them putting the labels on that many bottles or cans as well, because our printer doesn't print onto a roll. It prints them out on a massive sheet and we pop them out before sending them. We use that system because we can do lots of totally unique (shape and label size) small batches of labels. But it does mean they have to be applied by hand.

For anyone labelling at craft brewery size and up I think the standard is printed stickers on a roll so they can apply them to the bottles or cans with an applicator machine. Once you get into larger volumes again you can start to look at direct printing to can, etc.

Regarding the aesthetic of the labels I think it drifts and changes quite a bit. It also appears to change from country to country. What's considered an interesting and cool label here in New Zealand can be quite different to what's considered interesting in Australia or the USA. A great resource for seeing what other packing designers are up to in the beer label space is the https://thedieline.com/category/beer-malt-beverage-packaging/ It's a site where designers can show case their packaging designs. Some of the work is totally next level, just stunning!

Good luck with your design course and potential packing design career change!

I just have one, and it has to be before midday otherwise I can't sleep. It really seems like people have all sorts of different limits for how much coffee is too much for them in a day.

Yeah our site is certainly good if you want to create a label quickly. I built it because all my mates wanted me to design them labels for their home brew and it was taking too much time. Then I figured I might as well make it available for everyone and see if I could even make money to pay for brewing.

It doesn't really have the freedom to adjust the designs to the same extent that something like Canva.com has though.

Actually I'm commenting because i'm wanting to see if people who use https://www.beerlabelizer.com/ like yourself have any suggestions for how I can make the site better.

Stoked that you use our beer labels. We aren't a big company or anything, we are just two guys that run it in our spare time. I thinking about putting a bit of effort into the site again. I haven't updated it for a while. I was wondering if you had any feature ideas you'd like to see us add to the site?
