Hop Grail

The gallery

Every beer label sold across state lines is approved by federal regulators before it reaches a shelf — which makes the approved labels America's largest rolling exhibition of working label design. This is the art-forward cut, updated daily, artists credited wherever the label names them — meet the artists, or read how labels became an art form.

The artist directory — every credited label artist, their work collected. Claim your profile.
