Humanities on Tap: The History of Beer
From the bustling beer gardens of the 19th century to the secretive side-eyes of the Prohibition era, this talk explores how brewing became the ultimate "insider" badge for German Americans and a focal point for curious "outsiders." You’ll learn how a simple pint of pilsner helped shape a culture, and how the "noble experiment" of Prohibition attempted to dry up not just the kegs, but a deep-rooted immigrant legacy. Whether you're a history buff or just a fan of the froth, come discover the sudsy secrets behind the American dream. Prost!
