My interest in brewing is rooted both in visual culture and in an appreciation for the craft and its histories.
The story of spirits and their role in narrative-crafting, is the subject of a larger work that will probably end up on Box Quarterly.
But this article on Ger'onimo, a special edition Imperial Stout, appealed to both interests.

Jameson Irish Whiskey have collaborated with Beavertown, a micro-brewery based out of Hackney, East London, to produce an imperial stout aged in Jameson casks. The stout is named Ger'onimo in honour of Ger Buckley, fifth generation Master Cooper at the Jameson Distillery, who Beavertown founder Logan Plant met when he travelled to Midleton, Co.
