A cartoon alien figure riding a bicycle descends from a flying saucer within a yellow spotlight, set against a night sky filled with stars and a silhouetted forest of dark evergreens. The illustration occupies the full front label in a comic-inked style, with the beer name split across the beam of light in bold yellow letters. Colour is limited to bright yellow, royal blue, black, and flesh tones, creating high contrast against the deep blue background.
From the label“Space Age India Pale Ale is a collaboration with Backwoods Brewing and Space Age Fuel, bursting with notes of pine, white grape, and melon. Featuring a constellation of Citra, Simcoe, and Mosaic hops. Fuel your adventures!”
