Following along the lines of our last addition to the gallery, just as with Tequila labels, beer labels are another area of bottle packaging that is enjoying some real talented designers. As the 'boutique' beer industry spreads, so does the need for labels. And to win in this world, the labels have got to be eye-catching, and cool.

To get some creative juices flowing, start a listing of cool things that you've found that give you creative inspiration and jumpstarts. Send them in to share with others

Once again, while you are browsing these, and on each one -- ask yourself what the designer was thinking... why were the colors selected, what influenced decisions for solid print or transparency; why was that particular visual association made -- and how. AND is it a visual association that will help you in your current design project! Don't forget to send in your ideas and discoveries! ENJOY. . .
