The artwork

A geometric composition divides the label into radiating bands of yellow, orange, pink, and red that emanate from a central white teardrop shape. Within the teardrop sits a stylized grapefruit wedge rendered in pink with a yellow outline and radiating segments. Wavy horizontal lines in brown and cream separate the upper yellow section from the lower pink gradient. The beer name "PIPEWORKS" appears in bold sans-serif capitals at the top, with "PRISM THEORY" and "GRAPEFRUIT PALE ALE" in matching type below the illustration.
