We’re celebrating Women’s History Month by honoring Maria Sibylla Merian, a groundbreaking German artist, naturalist, ecologist, entomologist, and may we say feminist, from the 17th century. Her incredibly detailed illustrations of her extensive exploration into the life cycles of butterflies and the ecosystems they rely on have forever changed our viewpoint on and knowledge of these beautiful creatures.

Cocoon’s Merian Kolsch is a light and crisp German-style beer, which flips the script and ferments much cooler than an average ale. It sparkles with carbonation and crisp noble hop character, taking taste buds on a refreshing adventure.

Cheers to Maria Sibylla Merian, and all the incredible women that defy gender norms, whether in science, beer, or life in general.
