Saturnalia
Canterbury AleWorks

Belgian Tripel Saison Bourbon Oaked with Pomegranate 29 IBU 32 SRM

Hades burst through a dark crack in the earth and snatched Persephone to be his queen of the underworld. Persephone was not allowed to return to the world above until her mother Demeter prevented all plants from growing. But Persephone had consumed some pomegranate seeds and having eaten food from the dark realm she still could not leave. Zeus then decreed that Persephone would spend some months in the underworld while life would wither and the rest of the year above while life would thrive. Saturnalia is the ancient solstice carnival embracing the snatching of life and light by the dark. Born of this mischievous, soul searching season this mythic brew will accompany your dark ponderings deep into the Winter’s night.
