Beer Appreciation Night: The History and Renaissance of American Brewing

With Garrett Oliver, Steve Hindy, Debra Schmidt Bach, Nina Nazionale, Gabrielle Langholtz (moderator).

A century ago, New York City was a major brewing center, home to more than one hundred breweries. The last of those great breweries, Schaefer and Rheingold, closed their doors in 1976, leaving the city without a brewery for the first time since the early 1600s. Today, there are five craft breweries in the city that are part of a national movement based on the brewing traditions founded in Europe. Ironically, the European brewers are now looking to America for their inspiration.

A special tasting of Brooklyn Brewery beers will follow the program. Tickets are $49 for the program & Beer Tasting combined ticket (Members $37). Tickets for the program only $24 (members $12)
