apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

that's funny, i just saw this the other day and thought, that's a really cute label.. and just wanted to snatch it up too for inspiration.

Not to mention the fact that it's a delicious beer. I make fridge magnets out of the caps--love that little owl!

I love the label so much--I have an empty bottle on a shelf in my kitchen.

love it!

OMG! I need a bottle of this beer, 'cos these are the colors of my kitchen. We didn't want to start out with a whole kitchen re-do when we bought our house, so decided to work with the white with light blue and grey flooring and blue-grey countertop that was there, at least for a while. The appliances are white, and the cabinets are an old 1950's wall of simple metal cabinets, also painted white. We are about to paint the walls a warm neutral grey, and the accent color, for stuff like new potholders, tea towels, and artwork always includes some of that lovely vermillion red, and black... I wonder where here in Portland I can get some of that beer?

Hey, me too ValHalla, have 2-3 magnets from it on the fridge right now. Also kept the bottle & have one of those turn a bottle into an oil lamp stopper things in it. I know Bottleworks in Seattle (Wallingford area, on 45th) carries it!

I'd toss in some grey. A nice warm grey, half way between "dove" and "charcoal."

If you can't find Hitachino at your local bottle shop, try the nearest World Market store. They usually carry their beers.

i love that beer, love that owl, and those are totally the colors of my living room. sooooo much ruv. i feel like the combo looks pretty sweet with a mossy green as well...

i could see putting white flowers in a collection of hitachino bottles on our little dining table...

As lovely as the label is, and it is lovely, the beer is over rated, especially the white ale pictured.

I found a graphic of an advertisment for a Chinese beer and now I wish I could find it again--it's a koi and I think the motto said something about the king of beer (no, not the "boss" of beer!)

I'd like to see a real finished product!
