Cryptic Beer Labels

These Color-Coded Beer Label Designs Use Printing Industry Terms

Denmark's TO ØL Brewery is now making a six-piece beverage line with unique beer label designs. The products have names like Mr. Blue, Mr. Orange and Mr. Pink, which are identified by labels that reference the CMYK color combinations that are used in four-color process printing. Each bottle has a code and a corresponding neck label that is printed in the same CMYK color combination.

The Mr. White bottle stands out from the rest because it features a design that shows where it lands on the color spectrum in relation to Mr. Blue and Mr. Blonde. These intriguing beer label designs will catch the eyes of beer enthusiasts and graphic design lovers alike.

Soon, the TO ØL Brewery will also be unveiling a Mr. Brown bottle.
