The Bone Haus Chronicles

Featuring the art of Mikel Whelan

As a young man in the late 1800's, our patriarch Hans Von Biermann received a letter from his uncle deep in the Arizona Territory of America asking him to leave his brewer's family in Germany and help him mine a vein of gold he had just discovered in the Superstition Mountains just outside of a small settlement called Phoenix.

​

Hans, the alleged nephew of the Lost Dutchman, decided to pursue adventure and treasures for the family. He left his homeland and made the journey across the Atlantic and the vast plains only to arrive in Phoenix with no trace of his uncle or the mine he claimed to have discovered. 

​

Hans was determined to find his uncle and the riches he promised so he did the only thing he knew and opened a tavern called the Bone Haus. At this fine establishment on the outskirts of the wild west, he would mine the local patrons for any information leading to the whereabouts of his estranged uncle and the alleged gold mine. 

​

Each time Hans would venture into the Superstition Mountains, he would have a brush with the macabre, the eerie, the unexplained. He rode the line between life and death, often unsure of what he was witnessing and experiencing. Was it real? He captured his experiences in a detailed journal and we celebrate those adventures with each and every beer we brew. His legend and lore gives us the mantra to follow one's dreams regardless of obstacles, regardless of opinions, regardless of oppositions. Memento Mori.
