About this beer

This is the 50th of 94 labels we have from Fonta Flora Brewery. It is one of 10 barleywine / strong ale labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 1 day after it was submitted. The label carries barrel-aged on the front.

The artwork

A black-and-white woodcut of a diving bird silhouette occupies the upper half of the circular label, set against a large red sun rendered in bold curves. The bird's head and neck extend into the sun disk, creating a stark graphic division between the red background and the black water below. Type runs along the outer rim in a months-of-the-year date wheel format, with the beer name and series information centered above the bird, and the brewery name and address centered below in script and sans-serif lettering.
