Alcohol History Links July 7 - 14
​

Brewing History

The folks over at Lost Lagers have started a homebrew class focusing on historic brews!

An 1800's Guide to Drinking

A look at 'The Original' periodical, where author Thomas Walker recommended which types of beers to drink during your meal.

Grains of Gaul

A translation of Strabo's work about grain usage by the Gauls.
​

Jopenbier

A look into the Danziger Jopenbier style, a spontaneously fermented, low-level alcoholic brew from Germany.

McGovern's New Book

As I am sure it is to no major surprise to anyone, Dr. Patrick McGovern has released a new book, at least according to the plethora of articles about this new book. Not sure how it differentiates from his previous work, but it certainly will promote the brewing archaeology field! And, perhaps, more funding (which it really needs).

Sumerian Brews

A nice write up on brewing in Mesopotamia.
​

Jame Cook's brew

Apparently, the famous explorer James Cook brewed a mean Spruce ale.
​

The Holy Spirit

On the history of distilled spirits.
