Dismiss the stereotype of the bearded brewer. It's women, not men, who've brewed beer throughout most of human history. Their role as family and village brewer lasted for hundreds of thousands of years-through the earliest days of Mesopotamian civilization, the reign of Cleopatra, the witch trials of Medieval and Renaissance Europe, and the settling of colonial America.

Come learn about the forgotten history of women in the brewhouse, and the current world of female brewers for this special author's event with Tara Nurin at Cartesian Brewing.

Tickets are $15! Books available
