250th Anniversary Of American Beer--Colonial Beer Program In-Person
To mark America's 250th Anniversary, illustrator, author and Advanced Cicerone Em Sauter will give an illustrated presentation discussing the role of beer and brewing in American history. Starting from the Pilgrims landing on Plymouth Rock (because they were out of beer!) to the modern craft brewery movement and the beers we love today, beer has been woven through the fabric of American history. This event is a collaboration between the Agawam Public library and the Agawam Municipal Golf Course and will be held at the golf course. Beer samples will be available.
Bio: Em Sauter is an award-winning cartoonist, international beer judge, Advanced Cicerone, public speaker and founder of Pints and Panels, a website she launched in 2010 to focus on visual drinks education. A Connecticut resident, Em has authored four books on beer and is currently working on a fifth book about whiskey.
This program is sponsored by the Agawam Center Library Association.
