Wicked Weed Oblivion

Something weird this way comes may be the best introduction to Wicked Weed’s Oblivion Sour Red Ale. Witness the label’s graphic: a spelunker standing on the top of a tower inside some deep cavern, his headlamp illuminating silhouettes of jelly fish that float among the stalactites. And the story reinforces the embrace of this other worldliness—I won’t recite the entire paragraph, but it includes such gems as enveloping dust, fiery dirt, luminous glows, the earth falling into darkness, and furies that shift into overwhelming beauty.
