This is the 23rd of 41 filings we hold from Commonwealth Brewing Co. It is one of 88 american pale ale labels approved in July 2026. It was filed and approved the same day. The label names 3 hops — Nelson Sauvin, Galaxy and Strata.
A motion-blurred photograph of a surfer in the water dominates the lower two-thirds of the label, rendered in soft blues, purples, and sandy tones with a streaked, dreamlike quality; the upper third is a solid pink panel containing the beer name in bold serif caps and style information in smaller type. The composition splits into two distinct fields—photographic seascape below, typographic anchor above—with regulatory text and brewery details positioned in the left column and along the right edge. A small geometric goblet icon and horizontal brewery mark appear at the bottom centre in white.
From the label“Front label explicitly states 'India Pale Ale with Nelson Sauvin, Galaxy, and Strata'. Back label confirms 'India Pale Ale' and lists the three hop varieties. The beer is 5.8% ABV, which is consistent with an American Pale Ale rather than a double IPA. The explicit style designation 'India Pale Ale' combined with the moderate ABV and hop-forward character (three named hop varieties) indicates american_pale_ale rather than a more specific IPA substyle.”
