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

The artwork

Two classical busts rendered in engraving style with heavy cross-hatching occupy the lower half of the label, flanked by ornamental scrollwork on the left, their faces cracked and fractured by a network of fissures filled with gold leaf that drips downward across the composition. The upper portion is a field of golden ochre with the beer name in heavy sans-serif caps and style information in serif type. The entire design sits against a black border frame, with regulatory and brewery information confined to the left side and right edge.
