2020 was one grind of a year. Luckily, we had your labels to help us laugh our way into this new, and hopefully brighter, year. The GrogTag staff sat down (virtually) to sort through last years Hall of Fame winners and find our favorites.

Your 2018 label designs gave us a sense of your personalities and made us feel like we were a part of the occasion, whether it was a birthday party, wedding, or a celebration for that new homebrew.

Homebrew Challenges in Making Labels As home brewers, we all want our beer to not only taste great, but look great as well. This can be harder than you might think, since typically your only option for making labels is to use those white paper labels that are bland and hard to remove. Plus, you have to print them at home and, depending on how good your printer is, they always seem to look like home-made beer labels, and not the fancy ones you see at the store.

Creating stunning, personalized mead labels is easy with our design templates! We've added some new icons and images into some of our most popular labels to make them even better suited to mead labeling.

We call tin tackers ‘metal signs’. All our tin tackers are printed on a lightweight aluminum, size 11.5 x 13. They feature four drilled holes in the corner for easy mounting with thumbtacks or nails. You can order as few as one and print full color all the way to the edges. Many of our design suites include a sign product, so if you used our templates to create a favorite label you can easily recreate that favorite label as a sign. Created your own label offline as an upload your own? No problem! The tin tackers are our popular square (from the square with necker label set) sized up just over 310%. As long as you have a high enough resolution image to start with, you may be able to pull your design directly into our system through the Upload Your Own Sign template, crop it, preview and go. If you have any problems, please reach out to support. We want you to be proud to hang your tin tacker, let us help you achieve greatness by answering all your questions.
