About
Proclamation
Spirits can be many things: a transcendental search, the embodiment of inspiration, a ghost in the closet, a bottle of booze.
We see the spirit of America as all of the above.
Before democracy, there were spirits, and from spirits we created taverns and it was in those taverns that we laid out the blueprint for a new kind of country, with a new kind of ideology, not ruled by kings and queens but by men and women.
In other words, we got drunk and invented America.
Within these pages, you'll find tales from barrooms and battlefields, an almanac of alcohol, our founding fathers' favorite tipples and colonial-inspired cocktail recipes for revolutionary drinking.
