A craft beer label illustration for A West Coast IPA
The first craft beer in Abbeydale’s second Collab’ Series
This is label 2 of 6 – Each label interconnects to create an overall illustration.
In collaboration with Leeds-based Wilde Child, we’ve created this classically clean and crushable West Coast IPA. Heavily hopped with Ekuanot, Amarillo and Eureka for a vibrant and fruity character that’s packed with waves of papaya, orange and grapefruit flavours that break into a crisp, bitter finish.
The piece was sketched in pencil, then inked with Indian ink, scanned and coloured digitally with a Wacom tablet.

Part of the Abbeydale Collab Series – Part One and Two
Each series had 6 collaboration beers with 6 other breweries that were available in 440ml Can as well as Keg and Cask.
There were 12 beers in total in each series, with a year in between each series.
The can artwork for each beer joined together so the end beer drinker could peel and join the labels to make one big piece of artwork:
