To avoid too long explanations I use shortenings and my own systems in my Danish collection.

I have given the main label a number.

The neck-label has a letter.

The backside label has a roman numeral.

The labelforms is shown here:

Main labels 1-13, 14-28, 29-40, 41-

Neck labels A-S

Backside labels I-VIII

After the label form follows:

The contents quantity, if that is 33 cl, is it rare that it is mentioned.

The colors on the labels.

If the label/can contains a productionnummer is it written.

Often stands a number in the end, who starts with two capital letters, for example TU056. That is a nummer, I have given the beer in my collection.
