With over 16,800 beer producers in the UK, including 1,800 commercial breweries and a passionate community of 15,000 homebrewers, it's clear that beer remains a beloved national beverage. This ever-growing industry shows no signs of slowing down, as the allure of crafting and enjoying unique brews continues to attract newcomers eager to get a taste of the action.
That's why Handy Labels offers high-quality personalised beer labels, from size and shape to printed design. We will produce the perfect sticker for your beer bottles at budget-friendly prices.
Our custom beer labels work brilliantly for artisan homebrewers who want to add a quality-looking sticker worthy of the contents. Create your own personalised beer labels that will sell your beer, represent the quality and maximise your branding to its fullest.
We don't just brand beer bottles; we can also print beer can labels in high-quality CMYK on one of the largest material ranges. All you'll need to do is ensure our design and print guidelines are followed. In addition, with our small minimum order quantity of just 25 labels, you can print small-batch beer stickers or test your designs before ordering a larger amount! All of our beer label printing is produced in the UK.
Size of beer bottle labels
Whether you need to brand your homebrew or you're looking for the perfect labels to stand out in supermarkets, we know it's not one size fits all. We can produce virtually any shape and size you require on all of our materials, so don't feel limited by our template sizes.
We have created a handy label size guide to help you find the correct measurements for your branded beer bottles or beer cans. You'll also see some popular label sizes for different beer bottles if you want a nudge in the right direction!
Once you know your label size, you can use our Sticker Maker to personalise one of our pre-designed templates, use your own artwork, or, if you need help - contact a friendly member of our team.
Adhesives and Finishes for Beer Labels
We offer cost-effective, eco-friendly paper labels, which are great for temporary uses like labelling gifts or wedding favours. The most commonly used materials are uncoated and gloss paper, but do think about brown kraft as well - it looks impressive when combined with a brown glass beer bottle.
For a more premium and protective finish, consider our waterproof vinyl materials in white matt and white gloss finishes. These options elevate the look of your beer labels and offer enhanced durability against moisture and wear. Our laminated vinyl is our most robust material choice, featuring an additional layer of over-laminate to safeguard your label's design against the elements.
Please remember that your glass beer bottles or cans will probably endure cold temperatures in a fridge/freezer or be plummeted into an ice bucket! If you'd like to test the durability of your chosen label material before placing an order, please request a free sample pack. You can also view all our materials' application and service temperatures by heading to their product pages and scrolling down to product specifications.
We offer a removable, extra-permanent (high-tack) and permanent adhesive across our material range. For a glass beer bottle, we recommend a permanent adhesive. However, feel free to request a sample pack to check the suitability of each of them if your labels will experience more extreme conditions.
Choose personalised beer bottle labels in any shape and size you require. If you're not sure about size, use our Handy Ruler.
Beer Label Uses
The beer industry varies massively from hobby and craft brewers to national breweries. We can produce small quantities of craft beer labels to suit your newly formed start-up or a larger print run split across multiple designs to facilitate your beer empire!
It's essential to have a personalised, distinct design. Successful beer stickers will include impactful branding that showcases your logo and relevant product information. Product packaging entices buyers to pick up your beer and try it out. Consider what is unique about your brews and what your brand signifies, and make it clear on your packaging. If your custom beer bottle stickers follow these guidelines, your products won't go unnoticed.
An alternative use for beer stickers is as personalised wedding favours, gifts for stag/hen dos or birthday presents. Our minimum order quantity allows you to print custom beer bottle labels for even the smallest guest lists, adding a memorable touch to your gifts.
