The artwork

A pen-and-ink Alpine village nestles beneath snow-capped peaks and a rising sun at the label's centre, rendered in black line work with hand-coloured red roofs and a gold sun disk. The Confluence Brewing Company logotype and wheat-ear ornament sit above the scene in condensed serif lettering, with the beer name set in outlined gold caps below. The composition is framed by dark brown panels on left and right carrying regulatory text and ingredients.

From the label

“Confluence Pilsner The beer in early 19th-century Pizen was bad. So bad that the angry citizenry dumped 36 barrels of the local wheatale in the streets in protest. They could import Bavarian lagers, but good locally made beer was just as important to the people of Pizen then as it is to us today, so they sent for help. They sent an architect to Munich to learn brewery design, and he returned to construct a state-of-the-art brewery, including a new malthouse with the ability to produce newer, light colored malt. He also returned with Bavarian-trained brewer, Josef Groll. By 1842, Groll unveiled his "Pilsner," and the rest is history. The light-colored, crisp, clean lager has become the most popular beer style across the globe. Confluence Pilsner is our faithful take on this timeless and perfect style brewed with authentic German malt and hops. This golden lager is clean and bright, with notes of cracker malt, a touch of floral hop aroma from Noble hops, and a crisp finish. It's the beer the people demanded, and who are we to stand in the way? Prost!”
