My Coopers Anzac Day Pale Ale

[jennyss]

After bottling my latest batch of Coopers Aust. Pale Ale this morning; I was in a bit of a trance writing out the labels and realized I had re-named one as Anzac Day Pale Ale! I thought I liked that and that's what half the bottles are now labelled.

Very nice Jenny. Very neat writing too.

I've had the odd brew started on certain days. ANZAC, birthday, New Years Eve, St Georges day, but I've never neatly written a label like that.

Mine have barely legible numbers scrawled on the lid.

Thanks @Graculus, but that is not neat writing! In Primary School I was one of the last years taught to write in 'modified cursive' running writing,  and that sample would have failed.

Congratulations on bringing up the half century, Jenny.

I don't want to tell you how to suck eggs but your label is very detailed. I'd get weary writing all that 30 times. To save this chore I use a free app called Brewtracker and all the details of my brews are stored in it. To label my bottles I just use a liquid pencil and write the batch number on them. If I need info on the brew I simply refer to the app.

Your beer, your choice but I'm a sticky beak and feel compelled to share my "vast" knowledge with you.

They look good but as our learned friend @Malter White suggests it is a lot of work, there are a number of companies that sell software/devices that you can print custom labels from your phone & of course from a computer as long as you have Wi-Fi at home.

Below is only one of them & some stores such as Officeworks stock them.

I have been using them for years but not so much of late.
