DRINKING: A HISTORY
Thursday, February 7 at 7:30 p.m.
From our earliest days, brewing has
been a part of the American tradition.
One of the first fermented beverages
brewed in the Americas was ginger
beer, which got its start in the
Caribbean in the late 1400s and
quickly spread throughout the
colonies.
Georgia Dunn, a descendant of a British explorer who produced the first ginger beer in the New World, weaves colonial history, family lore and the culinary past to create a fascinating portrait of brewing and living in the Caribbean.
Sample tasting and reception to
follow. Co-sponsored by the Darien and Rowayton Historical Societies.
Registration required and
seating is limited. Must be 21 or older to attend.
 Cost of the program:
$10 for members of the Darien and Rowayton Historical Societies | $30 for non-members
