Batch #141 ~ Brown Ale

This Brown Ale commemorates the emerging movement called, "Slow Money", as initiated by Woody Tasch, author of the book by the same name.  "In Soil We Trust" is the motto on the fictional currency note sprawled across the book cover.  The subtitle reads, "Investing as if food, farms and fertility mattered".

The seal on the note is Woody's latest concept, a "beet-coin".  Why a beet?  Because it's the "most intense vegetable", of course, as noted by author Tom Robbins, in the first line of a novel.  For the Slow Money movement, a beet-coin is simply a tax-deductible vehicle for investors to help build local food enterprises.  Check it all out at: https://slowmoney.org/
