For this episode of Brewstilled, Barrel Aged Mysteries continue as we’ll be exploring the mystery of the U.S Navy Ghost blimp known as L-8. L-8 was a United States Navy L-class airship whose two crewmen disappeared over the Pacific Ocean on August 16, 1942. Several hours after L-8 took off from Treasure Island, San Francisco, California, it reappeared off the shore of Ocean Beach near Fort Funston. L-8 briefly made contact with the ground at Ocean Beach, causing damage to the airship, it then drifted over San Francisco and crashed on Bellevue Avenue, Daly City. No traces of its crewmen, Lieutenant Ernest DeWitt Cody and Ensign Charles Adams, have ever been found. I’ll discuss this mystery here on Brewstilled with a barrel aged beer from Millpond Brewing as the beer pairing.
