Queen Victoria popularized the use of floriography, the language of flowers. During her reign dozens of flower dictionaries were published. Shakespeare also used it in his plays — pansies in A Midsummer Night’s Dream showed idle love; wilting flowers and unweeded gardens pointed to corruption and decay in Hamlet; a willow symbolized the mourning of Ophelia in Othello; and four red roses on a stalk” in Richard III marked innocence and beauty.
Floriography remains a beautiful, timeless way to express what words sometimes cannot.

16 oz. can, pours a pale golden blonde with a small white head. Nose is bright, with lots of melon, tangy hops, citrus, pine, and a touch of dankness. Flavour is mega-dank upfront, with intense pot-like hops, bright pine, some hop tang from the Nelson complementing, and melon. Bright, tropical, quite bitter on the finish. Eminently drinkable. Wonderful.
