Old Ale


Last December I brewed an Old Ale for 2010, knowing that it would need some time before it was ready to share.  It just got it into the bottles a couple of weeks ago and hasn’t made it to the 3dog BreweryLogo_Old Ale_Merged_Final2_smallcooler yet.

Along the same lines is the St. Bernard Christmas Ale that is currently relaxing in an oak whiskey barrel, but soon ready to be bottled.  To keep me from mixing up the bottles (and to make more appealing gifts) I have usually, created labels for each batch.

This is the label I came up with:

This is vastly different from the old3dBOld_Ale label that I had been using for previous batches:

This was a generic image scrounged from the internet with some added embellishments.  I had originally named this “Old Dog Old Ale”, which sort of worked.  Don’t ask how I thought Belgian candi sugar and Irish ale yeast were appropriate for an old ale.  Brew and learn I guess.
