This is the 14th of 27 label filings we hold from Ballast Point Brewing. It is one of 183 double / imperial ipa labels approved in July 2026. It cleared 1 day after it was filed.
Two ornate sculpin fish rendered in orange, red, and cream scales dominate the right half of the label, hovering above a background of green and tan river rocks and aquatic vegetation. The fish are detailed in a naturalistic but decorative style, with elaborate fin work and patterned gill covers. The left half features the Ballast Point circular badge in white and cream against deep green, with the beer name "Imperial Sculpin" in gold sans-serif type below, while the far left panel shows a closer photographic view of the same rocky riverbed.
From the label“Front label explicitly states 'IMPERIAL SCULPIN' and 'DOUBLE INDIA PALE ALE'. ABV 8.6% confirms double IPA range (≥7.5%). Brewed and canned by Ballast Point Brewing in San Diego, CA.”
