The artwork

A bald eagle with spread wings dominates the centre of the label, rendered in comic-inked style with black body, white-and-blue striped wings, and yellow talons gripping a green hop cone. The eagle is enclosed in a white circular target-ring motif, above which sits the Vortex Brewing Company banner. The background is a deep oxblood red with visible texture, and the composition is flanked left and right by stacked type: "HONEYED / BREADY / CRISP" on the left in all-caps sans-serif, and "LIBERTY 250" paired with descriptive text on the right.

From the label

“A premium, brilliant amber colonial ale showcasing a complex, layered backbone of heritage Maris Otter, toasted Munich, and caramel malts. Infused with local wildflower honey, it balances its rich, biscuit-forward malt depth with a clean, floral sweetness and a crisp, refreshing finish. Brilliantly clear and incredibly smooth. Cheers to you America!”
