About this beer
This is the 10th of 18 labels we have from Phase Three Brewing Company. It is one of 180 double / imperial ipa labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 6 days after it was submitted. The label names 4 hops — Simcoe, Centenial, Citra and Nelson, and carries west-coast on the front.
An abstract illustration of a stylized ocean wave dominates the label, rendered in turquoise, cream, and coral pink against a black field. The wave breaks into a profile silhouette at its crest, with white clouds floating in the sky above. The beer name appears in bold, rounded sans-serif letters in coral pink across the lower portion, beneath it the style designation in smaller capitals. A crest of three small icons (sun, hops, and bell) introduces the brewer's notes above the centred title.

The label names its hops (Simcoe, Centenial, Citra…), which is enough for a real starting point.
