The winter solstice, also known as Yule, is one of the oldest winter celebrations in the world. It takes place on the shortest day to celebrate the rebirth of the sun and the longest night of the year. Spiritually, the winter solstice is a time to honor the light and darkness within each person. As lovely as the holidays can be, they can also be a little divisive. That’s why we love the idea of celebrating the winter solstice. It’s literally a celebration of the imminent return of sun, which we can all agree is pretty great. Whether you know of Solstice because of your favorite books, your own traditions, or just because you love the sun; we invite you to celebrate at our little brewery and wear your finest apparel as we celebrate the return of the sun!
