Beer has been an important staple of humanity for millennia. But how was beer important to the American colonists starting a new life in a distant place? The colonies lacked the comforts and foods of their homeland. How did they adapt and through this adaptation, change the drink they loved so much? In this episode, we'll talk to British food historian Marc Meltonville about myths, foods, and brewing/distilling in both England and the newly formed United States.
We'll also speak with Genesee Country Village and Museum senior director Brian Nagel and Rohrbach Brewing Co president Joel Will about their collaboration to brew 18th and 19th-century beer recipes to keep these interesting beer styles alive today. This is the perfect episode of the podcast for this month as the United States celebrates its 250th birthday!
