The artwork

The label is dominated by the large word "FINBACK" in bright cyan sans-serif capitals across the top, with "MIDDLE SEAT" rendered vertically in the same typeface down the center. The design employs a minimal geometric composition with stacked text elements scattered across a dark brown background: "DOUBLE," "IPA," and product details in cyan capitals arranged across the field, creating a rhythmic typographic pattern. The colour palette is restricted to bright cyan type and descriptive text against the dark brown ground, with no illustration present.
