Where this comes from
Read from the label art by Hop Grail. Fields checked against the approved label. How we get this data
Eight stylised matches arranged in a 4×2 grid dominate the central field against a deep purple background. Each match has a coral-pink head that graduates to cream toward the shaft, with small teal circles between pairs. The beer name appears in heavy black sans-serif capitals above the grid, with "No 8" and "Anniversary Series / Barrel-Aged Barleywine Ale" in smaller type. Regulatory and brewery information occupies the lower third in black type and a small colour-key swatch.
