About this beer

This is the 3rd of 18 labels we have from Phase Three Brewing Company. It is one of 39 hazy ipa labels approved in May 2026. Its label was approved 6 days after it was submitted. The label names 3 hops — Citra, Dolcita and Eclipse, and carries ddh, dry-hopped on the front.

The artwork

A comic-inked Chicago skyline dominates the label, rendered in purple and lavender with a bright sky gradient from blue to cream. Pink puffy clouds float above and around simplified skyscraper silhouettes, while the beer name appears in bold, black outlined capitals at the centre. The composition is a full-bleed illustration of the urban scene, with the style suggestive of 1980s graphic novels or pop art.
