A six-pack carrier looks better on a beer bottle mockup than on a white artboard, and this mockup is set up for exactly that.
Label designers and bars tend to get the most out of files like this. A small tip: transparent or glass items show the background through. Test your label on the actual background colour you’ll use.
It’s also a good way to compare a few label directions side by side without printing anything.

What’s inside the Beer Bottle Mockup PSD
The PSD is layered, so you can change:
- Label artwork, placed through the smart object
- Container colour
- Background colour
- Shadows
Add your design to the Beer Bottle Mockup
- Design the label flat and keep the logo in the middle third, where the curve bends it least.
- Open the file in Photoshop and double-click the smart object thumbnail in the Layers panel.
- Paste your design, resize it to fill the area, then save (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close that tab.
- Export a full-size image for your portfolio and a smaller one for social media.
One more thing: labels on curved surfaces compress at the sides, so keep key text in the middle third.
Ways to use this Beer Bottle Mockup
- Make two or three colour versions of a beer label and let the client pick.
- Share a craft beer can on Instagram, Behance or Dribbble with a real-looking preview.

Questions about this mockup
Is it free for commercial use?
It's free to download, but the licence belongs to Free PSD Templates. Check their page: it states whether commercial use is allowed and if attribution is needed.
How do I add my design?
Open the file in Photoshop, double-click the smart object thumbnail, paste or place your artwork in the new tab, save it (Ctrl/Cmd + S) and close. The main file updates on its own.
Do I need Photoshop?
Yes. This is a PSD mockup built with smart objects, so you edit it in Adobe Photoshop. Any recent CC version works.
Will the label bend with the shape?
Good curved-product mockups use a warp so the label wraps around. The preview shows it: if the edges of the label curve away, it does.
Why does the download open another website?
We list free files from designers around the web and link to the original page, so Free PSD Templates gets the visit and you get the file exactly as they published it.
