Beer Here
by Erika Goedrich
"Bless this grain for which any fool can eat, but for which the Lord intended a more divine means of consumption. Let us give praise to our Maker and glory to His bounty, by learning about beer."
--Micheal McShane as "Friar Tuck" in Robin Hood, Prince of Thieves
Let us also give thanks to people of the cloth like Friar Tuck, for the long and rich history of brewing begins with Christian monks in the 15th and 16th centuries. Since that time, beer and brewing practices have evolved and grown in popularity. Around the world, craft brewing and homebrewing have become the trends of today. The reasons vary for the popularity surge of craft and home brews, but one main factor is the millions of different styles people can produce to their own liking. More and more people are learning the brewing process is rather easy and giving praise by learning about, and consuming, beer.
