About this beer
This is the 42nd of 146 labels we have from Great Notion Brewing & Barrel House. Its label was approved 7 days after it was submitted. The label carries imperial on the front.
A grinning bearded figure with long hair holds a steaming mug of beer in both hands, rendered in a comic-inked style with bold outlines and cream, tan, and brown tones against a black background. The character dominates the centre-right of the label, with the beer name 'Great Notion' in script lettering above and 'DOUBLE STACK' in tall salmon-pink sans-serif running vertically down the right edge. Typography and regulatory information occupy the left side, leaving the figure as the primary focal point.
