5 Vulture Oaxacan-Style Dark Ale

5 Vulture is a deep amber-colored ale with complex caramel aromas with toasted sugar notes and a long, elegant spicy finish. Roasted ancho chile is used to add depth and complexity, without adding heat or strong chile flavors. In Aztec mythology, 5 Vulture (Macuilcozcacuauhtli) is one of the 5 Gods of Excess (Ahuiateteo) and symbolizes the excess of lust and envy. The vulture’s scavenging nature represents the stripping off of deeply rooted lust and envy impulses in our being. 5 Vulture is also associated with wisdom and longevity.
