The artwork

A pen-and-ink illustrated label dominated by Cuban-themed motifs scattered across a warm tan ground: a moka pot, drums, a vintage car, palm trees, coffee beans, and a cigar dominate the composition. The beer name appears in large cream-coloured serif capitals across the right side, flanked by smaller descriptive text. A darker purple-brown band runs along the bottom edge, featuring a herringbone pattern and two circular medallions — one for the Cigar City Brewing logo and another for Buddy Brew Coffee. The label balances dense illustrative detail with generous type hierarchy, creating a full-bleed pattern that evokes mid-century Cuban advertising.

From the label

This English-style Brown Ale is brewed with a heap of Cuban-style espresso beans from Tampico Buddy Brew Coffee. Vanilla and cacao are added as well, creating a bold ale that brings to mind a fine cup of Cuban coffee.
