Where to get labels

[shults]

We're looking for someone to print a custom-shaped labels on recycled-look paper. We still hand label, so no need for roll-to-roll format, just standard labels are fine for us. Anyone recommend a good printer for beer labels?

The question is, do you need self-adhesive or labels that need glue. If you are hand-labeling, you may be referring to self-adhesive, which is considerably more expensive than glue (basically paper) labels. Contact any label company in your general area to keep logistic/freight costs down.

thanks einhorn,
we´re new to this. I started a brewery in Mexico and hence the difficulty in a handy solution to anything.
Is there someone in your area that you would recommend?
thanks again
cheers.

Both are great to work with. great customer service, competitive pricing and short lead times.
