On your grail list. We'll tell you when it lands.It is the only filing we hold from Sand City Brewing Co. It is one of 91 fruited sour labels approved in July 2026. It cleared 1 day after it was filed. The label carries smoothie, fruited on the front. The label carries the Brewers Association independent seal.
A full-bleed composition of abstract organic shapes in bright hues fills the front label, progressing from orange amoeba-like forms on the left through magenta blob shapes with white outlines in the centre to blue and purple teardrop and circular forms on the right, with scattered strawberries and a Sandy City Brewing Co. crest anchor the composition. The beer name "SMOOTH OPERATOR" appears vertically down the centre in bold inline capitals with white outline and navy fill. The entire design sits on a deep navy background.
From the label“Label explicitly states 'SOUR ALE with Strawberry, Banana, Blueberry and Vanilla' — a fruited sour ale with multiple fruit and dessert adjuncts. The 'SMOOTH OPERATOR' name and smoothie-style fruit imagery further support fruited_sour with smoothie modifier.”
