Yeah, WE'RE BACK! We couldn't pass up the opportunity to put this event on!

Historic Brewing Conference @historicbrewcon.bsky.social · 14/05/2024

We're really sorry to say that we've taken the decision to cancel the Historic Brew Con. Unfortunately, despite the amazing interest and support we received we weren't able to sell enough tickets to make us comfortable to go ahead.

Brewing history isn't just a UK or European thing by any means, and this excellent talk from Douglas Hoverson lifts the lid on early American marketing! Make sure to get your tickets: sites.google.com/view/histori...

The international expositions of the late 19th and early 20th centuries celebrated the agricultural and industrial might of nations. Visitors anticipated seeing the newest marvels of the age, but also needed refreshment. The brewing industry satisfied both desires by creating lavish displays touting their technical prowess and by providing beer for thirsty patrons at elaborate restaurants and beer stands. Industry groups scheduled conferences to coincide with the expositions, but the breweries were generally more interested in awards and markets than science and technology, which was transferred more effectively by other means. Breweries outside of Europe used accolades earned at competitions to prove their quality was every bit as good as breweries of the Old World. This presentation will focus on the marketing of beer and brewing technology at World’s Fairs and how experiences at the expositions were used to market beer in America.

The last of our "main" speakers is now confirmed! Andrew Davison of Historic England and CAMRA fame will be giving an incredibly interesting talk that we can't tell you about just yet! Check out all the speakers here... sites.google.com/view/histori...

Andrew Davison works for Historic England. He is co-author (with the late Geoff Brandwood and Michael Slaughter) of ‘Licensed to sell: the history and heritage of the public house”, published by English Heritage in 2004, with a revised edition in 2011. It was whilst researching for that book that he first became aware of the influence the Temperance movement (the anti-alcohol campaign of the later C19 and early C20) had upon public house design in this country. He has also published papers on the Temperance movement’s own buildings.

He lives in West Yorkshire.

We are absolutely stoked that Lars Garshol is going to be giving a talk at our conference this year. He's almost single-handedly brought historical farmhouse brewing to greater recognition and is arguably responsible for so many brewers worldwide being aware of and now using Kveik yeast.

Lars Marius Garshol used to be a software engineer, but he gave that up to work full-time on researching and writing about traditional farmhouse brewing. He's spent the last decade researching farmhouse brewing throughout northern Europe. He is the author of Larsblog, a blog devoted to sharing his discoveries and travels, Historical Brewing Techniques: The Lost Art of Farmhouse Brewing, and a book on Lithuanian beer. He lives with his wife and daughter in Rælingen, Norway.
