More SpecialtyAbout this beer
This is the 2nd of 3 labels we have from Tennessee Hills. It is one of 5 rye beer labels approved in July 2026. Its label was approved 5 days after it was submitted. The label names one hop, HBC varieties.
A hunting dog sits in a tan grassland beneath mountains rendered in layered earth tones, facing toward a flock of birds in flight across the upper sky. The landscape composition spans the full front label width, with the Tennessee Hills emblem (a stylised oak tree in gold) positioned at the top in circular frames on both sides. The palette is dominated by forest green, golden tan, and deep brown, with white and cream typography announcing the beer name in distressed capitals across the centre. A decorative horizontal band in green anchors the bottom, and the label employs a split-field approach with the naturalistic scene in the lower half and the brewery identity and product information in the upper half.
Brew it
The label names its hops (HBC varieties), which is enough for a real starting point.
