The difficulty is it's impossible to know if something is seasonal most of the time since it's no usually written on the bottle.<br /><br />As for the labels, I think it's funny you think this label is ornate. The Dark Horse labels are always so terrible. That's the only reason it's hard to read. Otherwise, it totally depends on the brewery. Some hire artists, some have their friends do it, just depends. And I like a good label so I think they go to all the trouble so it looks good on a shelf.Rich Isaacshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05356872043234492112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7209567605132423964.post-58532371598310969612010-09-16T00:37:54.436-04:002010-09-16T00:37:54.436-04:00Also, any comment on the labels?

It's hard to even read the names sometimes.sbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221678106202144928noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7209567605132423964.post-211424897279406022010-09-16T00:36:29.841-04:002010-09-16T00:36:29.841-04:00How seasonal do you find these types of beers to b...How seasonal do you find these types of beers to be, Rich? I mean, raspberries aren't always in season. Do they use them when they are and then it takes a certain number of months for the beers to be ready? Will these only be around for a certain amount of time?sbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08221678106202144928noreply@blogger.com
