Where this comes from
Read from the label art by Hop Grail. Fields checked against the approved label. How we get this data
A circular emblem centred on the label contains a stylised tree with symmetrical roots and foliage, rendered in cream against an olive-green ground and framed by a white border. The beer name "early access" appears in a serif script below the emblem, while the brand name "FORBIDDEN ROOT" runs vertically in large sans-serif capitals along the right edge in cream. The overall field is a muted olive green.

The label names its hops — Nectar, Citra, Galaxy — which is enough for a real starting point.
