Where this comes from
Read from the label art by Hop Grail. Fields checked against the approved label. How we get this data
A concentric heart shape in magenta, yellow, orange, cyan, and purple radiates from the centre of the label, framing a black void where cursive script reading "First Love" floats in light blue with a small green hop cone integrated into the design. The word "FIRST LOVE" appears in cyan block type above the heart, and "HAZY IPA" sits below it, all centred against the radiating striped background. The brewery name and collaboration credit anchor the bottom in smaller type.

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