Eclipse-like copper Imperial IPA with a foam head like thick cloud in the blue sky. This ale is haunted by a prominent yet elegant floral, resinous, pine-like hop flavour intertwined with shamanic hints of juicy malt. A ghastly ritual you want to join in.
This label is an aesthetic weave of ghosts, the afterlife, religious persecution and the evil that men do.
Although the main character of this tribute Imperial IPA is the Native American Wovoka, who lived in between 1856-1932, the topic of religious persecution is as pressing as ever.
On a solar eclipse in January 1st, 1889, Wovoka had a vision of The Ghost Dance. The purpose of the dance was to reunite the living with the spirits of their dead ancestors, thus bringing peace and prosperity to the Northern Paiute people. But reality proved otherwise. After the infamous massacre of Wounded Knee most followers of the movement perished. We can only hope that they now dwell in the happy hunting ground.
With this brew we humbly salute Wovoka and his kin, and bear in mind that nothing is new under the sun. So this is us, in walking gently upon the earth, leaving behind a simple legacy; let Wovoka remind you that the past is alive.
