Twisted Gourd

South Street

Pumpkin – 8.4% ABV


The year before the Civil War struck the Commonwealth, a pumpkin blight affected crops throughout Central Virginia, turning the affected gourds into "the bleached resem’blance of twisted skulls", according to a historical reference. The rotting pumpkins fermented untouched in the fields until devoured by livestock who "roamed then the countryside mad with delirium." It was known as the Year of the Twisted Gourd.
