About this beer
This is the 14th of 139 labels we have from Great Notion Brewing. Its label was approved 30 days after it was submitted. The label carries imperial on the front. The label carries the Brewers Association independent seal.
A grinning sasquatch stands in a dense forest clearing, holding a steaming coffee mug in one hand and a towering stack of pancakes in the other, rendered in a comic-inked style with bold black outlines and crosshatching throughout. The creature's face is prominently featured with exaggerated teeth and wide eyes, surrounded by tall evergreen trees in green and brown tones beneath a grey sky with white clouds. The title "Double Stack" appears in flowing serif lettering across the top in rose gold, with "Great Notion Brewing" in matching script at the bottom, framing the central illustration on a solid black field.
From the label“Double Stack is our award winning Imperial Stout tempered with an irresponsible amount of maple syrup & barrel-aged local coffee.”
