How to make beer can labels

  1. Measure the can wrap (a bit short so the seam is clean).
  2. Open the free label maker and set that size.
  3. Add {{beer}}, {{batch}}, and any required line you already approved.
  4. Print one paper test wrap. Then print the batch.

Design the wrap

One test. Then every beer on the sheet.
