Tombstone – John Ale

Published July 15, 2013 at 1024 × 768 in Tombstone – John Ale

John Ale

This epitaph reads:

John Ale, the brewer, lies buried here
In life he was both hale and stout.
Death brought him to his bitter bier,
Now in heaven he hops about.

A “bier” is a stand or wheeled carriage that is used to display or transport a coffin. It is also German for “beer”. So I thought it was a clever epitaph.
