About this beer
This is the 7th of 7 labels we have from Montclair Brewery. It is one of 47 blonde / golden ale labels approved in June 2026. Its label was approved 9 days after it was submitted.
The label features a heraldic shield design centred on a cream ground, with the words "REPÚBLICA DE PANAMÁ" in white capitals on a navy band across the upper half, and "BLONDE ALE" in red capitals below. The shield is outlined in tan with a cream fill, and flanked by large red five-pointed stars on either side. Above the main shield sits a circular badge reading "SPECIAL EDITION" with the brewery's monogram. The composition is split horizontally: red field in the upper third, cream in the centre, and navy in the lower third. Decorative navy stars appear in the top left corner.
From the label“OUR STORY We created Montclair's first brewery with a mission to build community through craft beer — bringing people together across cultures, backgrounds, and neighborhoods. Our flavors are inspired by our roots, our travels, and the stories we love to share. You'll find our beers in our taproom and at partners throughout New Jersey and New York. With love and passion, Denise & Leo Light-bodied and refreshing, this blonde ale showcases a smooth malt backbone with a crisp, clean finish. Easy to drink and full of character without overwhelming the palate.”
