That I might drink

There were many tributes to local Ten Course Hospitality restaurateur Will Richey after he passed away in late 2023 following a car accident. But perhaps the most enduring will be Ode to a Nightingale, a black lager that brewer Mark Fulton whipped up for the menu at his and Richey’s Högwaller Brewing. A combination of a lager and a stout—two of Richey’s preferred styles—the beer takes its name from Richey’s favorite poem, and its label—a portrait of Richey himself—from local artist (and a former Ten Course employee) Wil Smith.
