About this beer
This is the 36th of 139 labels we have from Great Notion Brewing & Barrel House. Its label was approved 6 days after it was submitted.
A peacock with tail feathers fully spread dominates the left half of the label, rendered in a saturated palette of turquoise, gold, and orange with dark outlines and white highlights. The feathers form a dense circular fan, each rendered with flame-like detail, and the bird's body is rendered in graduated tones of blue and teal. The brewery name appears in flowing script at the top left; the right side holds the brewery mark (crossed axes within a beard outline), ABV, style designation, and regulatory text in white sans-serif type against the black ground.
