Ales of the Revolution

The Young Friends of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania partnered with the Chemical Heritage Foundation and Yards Brewery to present First Friday: Ales of the Revolution on June 7, 2013. As part of the Philadelphia Beer Week celebrations, 132 young friends attended the event where they heard a talk on re-creating Revolutionary-era ales led by CHF's rare-book curator (and avid home brewer) James Voelkel, tasted the three Ales of the Revolution by Yards Brewing Company, and perused documents from HSP's collection in a pop-up exhibit featuring period recipes and paintings of Revolutionary-ear Philadelphia Taverns.
