Hi guys and gals i was wondering what everyone is using for their own custom labels for their craft beer these days. I just use a little sticker from the dollar store on the cap with date and abbreviation of style of beer.

This is what I use:

Might find some answers in that thread also.

I make my own wine labels and they turn out good. I use this software,

So far I just print on plain paper and stick them on this a glue stick but I'd like to get the removable vinyl ones like this,

Masking tape and sharpie, stuck to the keg. Numbers on caps of bottles. Plain, simple, cheap.

A different colour tape for each beer would save writing on each bottle.

I usually just use a sharpie on the cap.
However if i want to get "fancy", I print off some labels on a laser printer and stick them on with milk.

I did a few up on Uline labels with the color printer at work. I was pretty happy with them. Cant seem to find a picture of a bottle though
