Did you know that women have been instrumental in the brewing tradition since the ancient Sumerian civilization through Colonial America to the present day? It was just after the Industrial Revolution that beer-making ceased to be deemed "women's work." If you'd like to learn more about beer, women's place in beer history and do some taste testing, too, join us at the Bank Draft Brewing Company for a "Chic Swig " - a beer-tasting for women.
