Beer bottle labels

Gooey Looey

I want to print some labels for my next batch of 500ml bottles but don't know where to start. I have a decent printer so looking for a resource for templates and also small packs of label printer paper. Any ideas?

Did a quick Google and the templates at Canva look great.

If labels are awkward to source, you can use the traditional homebrew method of printing to paper and affixing them with milk. Wallpaper paste works too if you're fancy.

I’ve used pritt stick to before, don’t like the idea of milk

I’ve used canva before and found it pretty good.

Canva looks great, just what I need. So I print on standard paper and just use pritt stick?

That’s what I did

Sounds like it would be easy to get off. The worst thing about the self-adhesive labels I use is it's completely random whether they'll just float off nicely in warm water or require dynamite and a blowtorch to remove.

+1 for milk, works great for sticking labels on.

I’d keep away from them altogether and just use different coloured or numbered caps for each brew.

They’re nice for a special occasion, I did them for my wedding and they were well worth it.
