15 Interesting But Weird Beer Labels
#15 Hoptimus Prime
Yes, this is a spin on the Transformers character we all know and love and but it wasn't the company's intent. The 9% Double India Pale ale from Legacy Brewing Co. was created with the design to be artistic and stand-out, and maybe crush the competition.

Vergina Premium Lager
This premium lager from the Macedonian Thrace Brewery used to be in production and not much is known on its taste or circulation. Was it's name a great choice? You be the judge.

Polygamy Porter
From the Wasatch Brew Pub And Brewery in - you guessed it, Park City, Utah - comes this traditional beer that not only uses the slogan "Why Have Just One?" but also merchandises the name/brand through a variety of apparel, including a bike jersey.

Mamma Mia! Pizza Beer
Crafted by a married couple from Campton Township, Illinois, this strange-looking brew gives off the vibe of that one unknown drink that haunts your fridge night after night. Luckily this is a real beer which was actually made to be paired with pizza and other Italian dishes.

Wasatch Evolution Beer
Another one from the Wasatch Brew Pub And Brewery, this amber ale has been controversial for it's name (given the whole Darwin thing) but not for it's taste. The malty hops flavor with a bit of spice has earned it a few awards including a note from the World Beer Cup in 2006.

Porkslap Pale Ale
If there's anything that can cross farmers with frats is this pale ale. The design may be a bit amateurish but it's an official label created by Butternuts Beer & Ale in Garrattsville, New York.

Old Engine Oil Black Ale
Being true to its name, the Old Engine Oil Black Ale from the United Kingdom carries a more thick texture than most beers and features a jet black colour. The label does insinuate the taste of gasoline but the brand actually carries hints of cherries and mocha.
8:
Tactical Nuclear Penguin
This brand of beer... has a mascot. And yes, it is a giant penguin. But it relates to the name, somewhat. This 32% beer is intially double barreld aged for 14 months which it then gets frozen over multiple times making it the world's strongest beer ever.

Caldera's Vas Deferens Ale
There's a lot going for this ale brewed in Ashland, Oregon, and there's a lot going on in the label. Aside from it's green, mildew-y appearance, the brand sports a terrifying devil tearing his way through who knows what while blood spurts everywhere. Tasty?
6:
Buttface Amber Ale
This restaurant-crafted ale - produced by the aptly titled Big Horn Brewing Company (Ram International) - has created a lot of jokes and one-liners for patrons and servers, but it's also been a successful brand with a profitable t-shirt line. Not that anyone would want a shirt with the words "buttface" on it.

Kudos
Introduced in 2010, Kudos is a double filtered beer by Greenroom Ales that is actually named an outstanding local beer by the public, mostly due to its quality as a draught beer.

Good Ol' Sailor Beer
Crafted and brewed in Sweden by a company that also handles other liquors, this type of ale is more popular for its design than taste as the bottle labels refer to historic ages where pirates and sea monsters raided the oceans.
3:
Dapper Dan Brown Ale
A brown ale brewed in Hood River, Oregon, it's no surprise that this beer combines taste with a modern but hip look. Though it is more local, the ale's bottle design was created to target a larger market which should help as it's already distributed through stores and bars/restaurants.
2:
Minister Beer
Minister is a private brand created by the Ministry Of Brewery in Poland and comes in two variants - Minister Pils and Minister Wheat Beer. Thanks to the original drawing by illustrator Kinga Offert-Ploszaj, the brew's first batch of 1,600 bottles was sold out in a week during its initial launch.
