Here's something they don't tell you in school: The Pilgrims landed in Plymouth in November 1620 because they were running out of beer. Also, the Puritans drank like fish. In this seminar, learn about New England's unique beer history while drinking New England beer. Lauren Clark, author of the forthcoming Crafty Bastards: Beer in New England from the Mayflower to the Modern Day, moderates a stellar panel of brewers including Mark Hellendrung of Narragansett Beer, Chris Lohring of Notch Brewing and Dann Paquette of Pretty Things Beer and Ale Project. While you soak up their ales and lagers, soak up some knowledge about the strange beers of the colonial era, the breweries of New England's industrial heyday--Boston alone had 30--and the origins of our current golden age of craft brewing.
