 | Brewing in New Hampshire: An Informal History of Beer in the Granite State from Colonial Times to the Present co-sponsored by the Friends of the East Kingston Public Library and the NH Humanities Council (www.nhhc.org) |
| at the Library on Saturday, October 23rd at 11am |
| We will explore the fascinating history of New Hampshire's beer and ale brewing industry from Colonial days, from when it was home- and tavern-based, to today's modern breweries and brew pubs. Unusual and rare photos and advertisements document this changing industry and the state's earliest brewers, including the renowned Frank Jones. A number of lesser-known brewers and breweries that operated in the state are also discussed, including the only brewery owned and operated by a woman before the modern era. Illustrations present evidence of society's changing attitudes towards beer and alcohol consumption over the years. Whether you're a beer connoisseur or a ″tea-totaler″, this lecture will be enjoyed by adults of all ages. Anticipating an oft-asked question... Sorry, there are no beer samples given out at this lecture. |
