The artwork

A pen-and-ink engraving of a goat's head occupies the centre of the label, rendered in fine linework and positioned between the words "BOCK" in large orange sans-serif capitals. The goat faces forward with a long beard and twisted horns, flanked by orange horizontal rules above and below. The brewery name "Tree House Brewing Company" curves in script at the top in gold lettering, with the tagline "LIVE WELL. DRINK FRESH" in all-caps below the goat. A small orange circular emblem containing a stylised tree appears in the upper left corner. The background is solid black, and the composition is symmetrical and vertically centred.

From the label

“Feast or Famine is our Triple Bock and the heftiest entry into our series of traditional Bock beers. Pouring a jet black color with flashes of ruby hues, its head rises and settles quickly into the abyss. Aromas of burnt caramel, plum jam, and dark cherry syrup hover above the glass. Following behind are notes of molasses, chocolate-covered figs, and earthy spice. Despite its rich character, its extended conditioning makes for a sublime and effortless sipper. A world of plenty resides neatly against the edge of hunger. Sweet and still, they graze until, like the breaking of a dam, a torrent of horn and hooves floods across the plains. Two perfect evolutions, one built of precision, the other as quick as a gust of wind.”
