WICKERMAN
West Coast IPA
In the days of old, the Wickerman, symbolic king of winter, was made with autumn’s last sheaf of straw, then given the hearthside seat of honour over winter. Come spring, he was burned in sacrifice to banish winter & bring protection & fertility to his hosts. If the Wickerman had a final request before he was torched, it would be for a glass of this fruity & spicy thirst-quenching IPA. Pour him a glass & raise yours in farewell to winter.
