Just published in Notes and Records, a paper about Newton's beer mug! Read about the wooden flagon that Newton is on record as giving to his Trinity College, Cambridge chamber-fellow, John Wickins, which survives intact: https://t.co/XvlRwhaTSa #notesandrecords#twitterhistorians
Now in paperback - Globalization in a Glass by @beer_historian is an exploration into the global spread of Pilsner beer, analysing new technological & scientific innovations, business strategies & the changing tastes of metropolitan & colonial consumers. https://t.co/NRs3ILY72K
@NigelSommelier@HookyBrewery@Adnams Many thanks for the recommendation! And really nice to see it being read in a suitable setting...
It's still in print: the publisher's in the US (https://t.co/yolBV4SMeU) but the usual retailers over here should be able to get it easily enough.
One week from tonight the 6th Annual Beer Culture Summit begins. A public gathering that has become one of the most diverse, accessible, educational, and equitable gathering in both beer and the cultural arts.
Join us from wherever you are October 16-19. https://t.co/ltkta4DX4C
We lost our twitter account to the birth date tech issue so we are rebuilding. We have managed to get our old handle back but lost all our followers and old tweets so please bear with us, re-follow, and send us your interesting drinking news and events.
If anyone is interested The Brewery History Society group on FB has now reached 1000 members and is quite active. Perhaps a lighter look at the past with various posts about bottles, memorabilia, old records etc.
