    These labels look so damn good I'm afraid they will overshadow the brew! Just printed them up. Now to cut them out very carefully (half way through a Sucaba, should be no problem!) and slap them on the bottle.

    Will post pics when finished!

    The eagle has landed, still at work so I will post a pic a bit later but the contents include:

    Vera Mae (my first Hill Farmstead, very excited to try)
    Weyerbacher Heresy (looking forward to this one)
    Homebrew 12oz with pink wax (I am assuming the wax means this is the same brew that I designed the label for)

    That is indeed the english barleywine designed for the wedding. The wife gave all the labeled bottles away!

    P.s. I would sit on that homebrew for another few months. Try it on a cold day in January...or wait till 9/10/13¡

    I think I will wait and resurrect this thread in about a year to report back :slight_smile:

    Did you save any bottles for future anniversaries? That would be cool if you had many bottles leftover to have once a year. You can see which gets better, the marriage or the beer :slight_smile: .

    Congrats, the bottles came out very nice.

    Thanks! I have a few 12oz bottles left (all unlabeled, for now). Enough to last through about 5-6 anniversaries. Wish I had more, but my bride was feeling generous and started handing bottles out to the photographer, wedding planner, etc., etc.

    Here's to hoping they both improve for many, many years.
