Read from the label art by Hop Grail. Fields checked against the approved label. How we get this data

The artwork

Eight vertical candles in gradient hues—orange to red to cream—stand against a pale blue-green ground, each with a stepped flame profile that descends from left to right in a descending staircase pattern. The composition is centred and geometric, occupying the upper two-thirds of the label. A pair of stylized wings and small colour-bar grid flank the primary illustration at the bottom; the palette is cream, pale blue-green, orange, red, and gold. Type is set in bold condensed sans-serif caps for the title and mixed serif and sans-serif for the supporting text and brewery information.

The label names its hops — Citra Dynaboost, Citra Hyperboost, Cryo Citra… — which is enough for a real starting point.
