“For us, brewing is akin to art. Beer is our canvas – we have water, malt, hops, and yeast. Four basic paints, four essential elements. And the most crucial aspect is imagination and a great thirst for creating new things. We experiment with styles, tastes, ingredients. We are trying to go beyond the mundane and boring. As with any good work of art, we, first of all, create an emotion.”

Ghost urn is the urn for ashes. The idea is to move the body into the afterlife and turning into a ghost. The receptacle’s opaque color and crimped edges look like a ghost; the ashes are held in a clear glass cylinder, which fits neatly inside the color interior. In addition to the porcelain model, there are designs for metal urns in a silver tone and a gold tone.
