About this beer
This is the 33rd of 139 labels we have from Great Notion Brewing & Barrel House. Its label was approved 6 days after it was submitted.
A grinning Bigfoot or sasquatch holds a steaming coffee cup in one hand and a tall stack of pancakes in the other, rendered in pen-and-ink linework with gold, cream, and pink tones against a black field. The creature dominates the centre of the label with exaggerated features—wide eyes, prominent teeth, and shaggy hair rendered in cross-hatching. The beer name and style information occupy the left side in white sans-serif type, while "DOUBLE STACK" runs vertically in gold and pink script along the right edge.
From the label“Imperial stout with coffee, maple syrup, natural flavor and caramel color.”
