About this beer
This is the 159th of 242 labels we have from Burial Beer Co. It is one of 59 barrel-aged stout labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 1 day after it was submitted.
A skeletal animal skull—horned and weathered—hangs suspended from a gnarled, leafless tree branch against a solid black ground, with billowing clouds of smoke or breath curling upward from the cranium. The composition occupies the central third of the label in full vertical depth, flanked by cream and gold serif type on the left and regulatory text on the right. The entire image is rendered in pen-and-ink linework with cream and gold line weights over black, creating a high-contrast, detailed study in mortality and decay.
