Blackie Ford, the revolutionary spokesperson for the wheatland hop workers strike of 1913. Unsanitary working and living conditions, contaminated water and brutally underpaid workers united under Blackie Ford's voice for decent treatment. We dedicate this high-hop Imperial Black IPA, brewed with hop strains thought to be grown in Wheatland at the time. Dedicated to the imprisonment of Ford, and those who lost their lives. Respect the workers that help grow and harvest our food.
