ABOUT THE LABEL
The label plays on the many ghost stories surrounding the brewery, with a modern twist through text messages.
A visitor on a tour of the brewery once got lost from the group in the cellars, and snapped a photo of the casks. Upon later viewing he found a ghostly figure, perhaps the ghost of Johanna de Corby?
