About this beer
This is the 5th of 8 labels we have from Aurora Brewing Co. It is one of 180 double / imperial ipa labels approved in July 2026. It was submitted and approved the same day. The label names 4 hops — Simcoe Cryo, Nelson Bliss, Mosaic Cryo and Strata, and carries ddh, hazy on the front.
A stylized red lobster and green broccoli crown face off across a teal water line, rendered in bold comic-inked linework against a gradient sky that shifts from golden yellow at the top to burnt orange near the horizon. The two creatures occupy the full width of the label in a confrontational stance, with fine hatching and stippling adding texture to their forms. The beer name appears in large orange-yellow letters with a red drop shadow positioned across the water line, anchoring the composition.
From the label“New England Style Double India Pale Ale with NYS Wildflower Honey. Double Dry-Hopped with Simcoe, Simcoe Cryo, Nelson Bliss, Mosaic Cryo, and Strata Hops.”
