Do they have some kind of citation about women being among the earliest brewers? I don’t know much about that history.
im just guessing
but i bet many brewed their own
and the brewing then was a domestic chore
rather than like now where the husband is escaping to his garage man cave to work on his hobby
commercial brewing would have been done by men back then
It’s true. EVERY woman I know just can’t stop talking about, or sharing their beer brewing secrets. .....and each time I shop for a gift of ladies clothes....smack dab in the middle of the displays is...the beer making vats, and enzyme packages...
Sarcasm? May it not be.
It’s in every anthropology textbook ever published!!!
On the less sarcastic side...in an era when being sober was an absolute necessity to survive...do you think a house woman would brew the suds so her husband or support male would be buzzed half the time, after a hard day hunting or working the crops?
But the advertising is remeniscent of the Virginia Slims cigarette campaign, just like the advertising jingle went......
.you’ve come a long way baby to get where you got today..you got the same lung cancer rates as men.,baby... you’ve come long long way
“Among the earliest” could mean anything. Impossible to refute.
I read a theory that in prehistory people would let grain sit in bowls of water to soften it and make it easier to eat. Supposedly, that led to porridge, and, accidentally, bread and beer. Who made that accidental discovery first? Who knows?
That part is BS. Women often were brewers in the middle ages. It was a home industry and was one of the ways in which women could make money.
However, they are trying to take that historical fact and then amplify it to claim women were the earliest brewers. There is no evidence for that. Beer has been around since a LOT earlier than the middle ages.
Yup, the wimen brewed and poured beer, to wash down the sandwiches they made
Actually, we should commend Miller Lite for reminding us of this fact
