Thursday, Oct. 8, at 6:30, we are hosting “Brewing in New Hampshire.” Glenn Knoblock explores the fascinating history of New Hampshire’s b**r and ale brewing industry from Colonial days, 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 b**r and alcohol consumption over the years. Whether you’re a b**r connoisseur or a “tea-totaler,” this lecture will be enjoyed by adults of all ages. This program was made possible by NH Humanities. Registration is encouraged.
