Beers To You! 2022

 Another edition of Beers To You?  That deserves a drink!

Four two-hour sessions explain the roots and development of the craft beer industry in the US, and four one-hour sessions with a short history of beer in Spain.  The first two weeks will be in English and the second in Spanish.  This is BYOB, but session descriptions include suggestions for beer styles to go with the presentation, and any beer store in town will be able to recommend one to you.  The closest to our location is Labirratorium, where you can be sure to get some great advice and you can pick up a cold beer (or two) to bring to the session.

Cuatro sesiones de dos horas explican las raíces y el crecimiento de la industria de cerveza artesana en EEUU, y cuatro sesiones de una hora dan una historia muy corta de la cerveza en España.  Las sesiones de las primeras dos semanas de julio serán en inglés y las de las dos últimas semanas en español.  No podemos ofrecer bebidas, pero los asistentes pueden traer las propias.  Las descripciones de las sesiones tienen sugerencias de estilos para acompañar la información y cualquier tienda de cervezas te puede aconsejar.  Más cercana a nosotros es Labirratorium, donde te aconsejarán de maravilla y puedes encontrar una cerveza bien fresca, o dos, para acompañar el curso.

Beer In Spain - Craft Explosion

Image
Unlike some other countries, Spain did not have a DIY, back-to-basics homebrewing movement.  But there were students who spent time in other countries and tried other beers, even finding themselves doing some brewing of their own.  At home, they introduced their new hobby and new styles to friends and homebrewing quickly took off, as well as the interest in craft beers.  Microbreweries popped up all over and the reaction by Spain’s Big Beer was...expected, although with its own twist. Drink along?  IPA, sour, red ale. A contrario de otros países, no existía ningún movimiento DIY de cerveza casera en España.  Pero, sí había estudiantes que pasaron un año o más en otros países y probaron otras cervezas, hasta algunos llegaron a probar homebrewing  ellos mismos.  De vuelta a casa, introdujeron su nuevo hobby a amigos y la moda fue estableciéndose, y el interés en la cerveza artesana con ella.  Microcervezerías aparecieron de la nada en todo el país y...

Beer In Spain - The 20th Century

Image
Industrial brewing has left Spain with more or less the same tastes as the rest of Western Europe, and the same process of whittling down the multitude of brewers has happened.  The country is supplied by a handful of breweries, which do their best to achieve national distribution, although that doesn’t quite happen in the early decades of the 20th century.  Beer becomes an interesting tool of propaganda during the Civil War.  For much of the century the Franco government’s protectionism allows Spanish beers to flourish at home, although it leaves them vulnerable later on.  Eventually, foreign investors take an interest in the market and national breweries join with international ones. Drink along?  More lager and more pilsner.  Icy cold and in a tiny glass, if you can. La industrialización de la cerveza ha dejado a España con gustos iguales, más o menos, que los de los otros países de Europa Occidental, y también se ha visto el mismo descenso en el número ...

Beer In Spain - In The Old Days

Image
A quick rundown of beer events over quite a few centuries...since most of those centuries just don’t have that much beer.  A pre-Roman surprise, some climate factors, and a less than triumphant return of brewing to the peninsula.  We see the run-up to the Industrial Revolution and the slow but more-or-less steady rise in popularity of beer, especially from the north.  If you're familiar with attitudes in other European countries, you might be surprised by what people in Spain thought of beer during the time. Drink along?  Table or small beer, Belgian abbey, old English style ale Un corto resumen de fechas importantes cerveceras a través de los siglos, ya que la mayoría de ellos tienen poca cerveza.  Hay una sorpresa preromana, influencias climáticas, y y una vuelta algo menos que impresionante de la cerveza a la península.  Vemos los principios de la Revolución Industrial y el auge lento de la popularidad de la bebida, sobre todo en el norte.  Si conoc...
