    Context would help. Where did you get that picture?

    Unfortunately I don't have a whole lot of info. A friend on facebook asked me for help with this, knowing that I'm a beer guy. I'll see if he knows any more about where it was taken.

    Looks like there's definitely "fjörd" with the finger covering the "rd".

    The word on the label could be finnfjord, but I can't link a beer to it, yet.

    Looks to me like a "p" or an "f" right before the F in what is assumed to be "FJORD". I'm wondering if this isn't an American beer or a beer with something other than English language label...

    Doesn't look to me as though there's another 'n' before the one we can see. Also, going out on a limb here but is it possible the logo on the top is the country of Sweden?

    My first thought was something Scandinavian as well. The pic on the neck label looks to me more like Denmark than Sweden. What's throwing me off is the shape of the bottle itself, which looks to me more like a typical American bottle than most of the European imports I'm used to.

    I just posted over on the Scandi forum as well. I'll let you know if they come up with anything.

    Thanks to everyone for your help!

    It is actually a musicians album art that you are looking at on that beer bottle. The link below explains more, but essentially Collective Art allowed artists and musicians to submit their own artwork to be featured on their beer. This label was the album artwork for Lindy Vopnfjord, who is #39 on the list.

    It's Lindy Vopnfjörd, Young Waverer.

    He's a Canadian singer-songwriter. Why his album cover is on a beer bottle I don't know, I suspect a rib?

    Google it, or I have a link to imgur (mobile app won't let me upload pics properly) http://i.imgur.com/Y9PUWoL.png

    Just seen all the recent replies, consider mine null and void!

    And I thought I'd been a real sleuth too!
