Craft Beer Awards 2016: Best Label

The Abbotsford-based brewery’s design gets all the small stuff right

Sometimes, you can judge a book—or a beer—by its cover. While local breweries have set the design bar high, the understated simplicity of Field House Brewing labels consistently sets it apart from the (growing) pack.Here, the sum is greater than its parts. From the toothy, uncoated paper stock to the perfectly detailed illustration and well-crafted typography—they elevate this design from a potentially tired hipster aesthetic into a timeless classic. That’s a credit to Field House co-founder Josh Vanderheide, who also helps other local breweries, wineries, and cideries with their branding.
