How to Brew, John J. Palmer. (This book is an absolute must-have for beer enthusiasts.)
a brief history of beer & brewing
chris mller
Beer is fundamentally water, barley, hops,
and yeast. The brewing process releases fer-
mentable sugars from the barley (and other
cereal grains like wheat, corn, and rice) and
these fermentable sugars interact with the
yeast culture to produce ethanol the version
of alcohol that can be safely ingested in small
doses. Hops are used for flavouring. Despite the
crude simplicity Ive painted in this picture of
beer production, thats essentially all beer is
the fascinating part is how varied the results are
from nation to nation, town to town, and tap
to tap.
Like most 7,000-year-old things, the details
on beers emergence are appropriately wobbly.
Chemical tests on ancient pottery vessels sug-
gest fermentation occurred through cereal
grains exposed to airborne active yeast in what
is now known as Iran. Call it a happy accident
if you will, but a 6,000-year-old Sumerian
tablet depicts several people drinking from a
communal bowl in a festival. The first recorded
recipe of beer can also be traced to the Sume-
rians, with a 3,900-year-old tablet describing
the process of making beer through the barley
found in bread. For beers first few thousand
years of existence, it was largely made at home
for domestic use a far-cry from todays land-
scape of multi-national brewing corporations.
The next great move for beer was in the eight
century A.D., and beers subsequent placement
in the monastic tradition of European monks.
Part of the move of beer into the clergys hands
was its use during monastic fasts at various
points in the religious calendar. Unable to con-
sume solid food, monks utilized a high-grain
content to produce a robust and filling style
of beer. The high grain content emerged as a
result of the churchs tax collections through
agricultural products in lieu of a cash economy
in some locales, and the resulting brew helped
monks fast for weeks at a time, consuming only
a high-carbohydrate and grain protein enriched
brew for the duration of the fast. Monks soon
learned to commercialize the styles emerging
popularity amongst the laypeople and turned
monasteries into the worlds first beer stores.
In Germany, perhaps the most important
beer law in history was passed the Reinheits-
gebot in 1514. Translated as the Beer Purity
Law, the Reinheitsgebot mandated that
beer be produced exclusively from water and
barley. The law was later modified to include
the use of hops in brewing and mandated an
aging session of several weeks before selling to
the German public. Foreigners however, could
still be sold premature beer.
By 1602, beer was packaged in glass bottles
with a cork stopper, not unlike a modern wine
bottle.
The Industrial Revolution that vaulted
Great Britian and continental Europe closer
to modern brewing techniques was the next
great transition phase for beer and brewing.
Industrial technologies led to brewing beer on
a scale not seen before, and societys thirst was
ever growing. In this period, brewing moved
away from the household and into the factory,
a movement championed by hugely successful
British brewers such as Arthur Guinness, the
founder of the Guinness brewery and brand at
St. James Gate in Dublin, Ireland in 1759.
Near the end of the eighteenth century,
Joseph Bramah invents a hydraulic press that
becomes the basis of draught beer dispensation
systems. Pub-goers the world over felt their
pocketbooks lighten as draught beer produced
a fresher quality beer for use at drinking estab-
lishments. If youve seen Tarantinos Django
Unchained, then youve seen this system
in action. The draught beer system doesnt
receive any major overhauls until carbon diox-
ide (CO2) is added in the early 1900s, and later
developments led to the use of nitrogen gas.
Nitrogen gas creates the creamy and smooth
head of many draught beers produced in the
United Kingdom, and is seeing increased use in
North America as well.
By the turn of the nineteenth century, brew-
ing was a worldwide phenomenon, with the
import and export of particular brands beget-
ting trade systems that lay the foundation for
further trade networks between European
powers. Significant railroad developments
(including an underground transport network
at St. James Gate) were also bolstered by the
beer industries requirements of moving prod-
uct over land and sea. The travel of beer also
required a process of keeping it fresh and safe
from souring, enter Louis Pasteur. In 1857,
Pasteur developed the process of pasteuriza-
tion that killed unwanted microorganisms in
beer in order to keep it drinkable over long
voyages. Pasteur learned through beer and the
yeast processes that occur within it, and later
took his knowledge to other areas of scientific
development.
The first known picture of (in this case) men
drinking beer at a pub is from Scotland in 1844
by Hill & Adamson. Since then, the picture
has been recreated the world over on a nightly
basis, as earths pubs and watering holes are full
of people enjoying the beverage that connects
us to thousands of years of human tradition.
Why we are here: to
tremble at the terrible
beauty of the stars,
to shed a tear at the
perfection of Beethovens
symphonies, and to
crack a cold one now
and then.

The brew reviews st. paddys day special:
the craft-brewing
revolution
Its always fascinating how history fnds a way to
repeat itself. Just as beer used to be produced on a
smaller scale for a smaller audience, craft brewing
has emerged in North America as one of the fastest
growing industries in consumer products in North
America. Te desire for good craft beer stems from
the theory that large breweries are centrally con-
cerned with proft and not concerns on the taste
of the beer. Recently, AB InBev, the company that
owns Budweiser and Coors Light among other big
name brands, was accused of watering down their
beer in the United States as a means of selling more
product at less production cost. While this accusa-
tion has not yet been settled, the concern remains
prominent to craft beer enthusiasts, who prefer
their beer to come from local breweries that use
higher quality ingredients and no substitutes to
create a better beer. For the non beer-drinker, its
the equivalent of going to Te Woolwich Arrow
for dinner instead of McDonalds, a fundamentally
diferent approach to beer than the Natty-Light
frat lagers that dominate a beer culture that
values quantity over quality. Because of this, craft
beer values responsible drinking over mass con-
sumption, and craft beer sells without the extensive
advertising campaigns of major corporate brew-
ers that involve minimally-clad women and overt
representations of American masculinity.
In a sense, beer drinkers fgured out that beer
should be about one thing: the beer itself. Make
no mistake, craft brewing is still established as a
money-making enterprise, but people are looking
to spend their beer-dollars on locally sourced and
crafted beers, thereby supporting local economies
and forgoing the multi-national corporations. Its
this trend that led U.S. beer sales on an overall
downward trend of 1.3 per cent and 1.2 per cent
sales decreases in all beer sold in the United States,
but an increase by 13 per cent in 2011 and 15 per
cent in 2010 in the sale of craft beer.
cool beer facts
Per capita consumption of beer (2010):
1. Czech Republic (132 litres per capita)
2. Germany (107)
3. Austria (106)
4. Ireland (104)
5. Australia (98.08)
23. Canada (68)
Top 5 beer-producing countries (percentage of
world total) 2009-10:
1. China (25.3per cent)
2. United States (13.7per cent)
3. Russia (10.8per cent)
4. Brazil (6.3per cent)
5. Germany (5.9per cent)
As of April 3, 2012, brewing in the United States
produced $196 billion in revenue. Te entire GDP
of Columbia is $196 billion.
Each year, brewers purchase 360,000 tonnes
of Canadian, prairie-grown barley for use in the
brewing industry. In Canada, the brewing indus-
try accounts for 1.2 per cent of the GDP, creates
205,000 direct and indirect jobs, and generates
$4.3 billion in tax revenue. Canada is one of the
top ten beer exporting countries in the world, with
exports totaling 17 per cent of the total Canadian
beer production; a great majority of that 17 per
cent goes to the United States.
According to Te Beer Store, the top ten sell-
ing brands of beer in Canada are as follows: Coors
Light, Canadian, Budweiser, Labbats Blue, Bud
Light, Carling, Alexander Keiths India Pale Ale,
Lakeport Pilsner, Busch, and Heineken. Its no
coincidence none of these have been featured in
Te Brew Review, its all about expanding hori-
zons, fellow enthusiasts.
beer in mythology & theories
of human history
Since beer is a largely agricultural product, cul-
tural traditions have made connections between
beer, the land, and the supernatural.
Te Finnish poem Kalevala was written in the
19th century but emerged from the nations oral
tradition. Kaleyala devotes more lines to the
creation and enjoyment of beer than it does to the
creation of the world.
According to Czech legend, the deity Radegast
(not the wizard from Te Hobbit), the god of good
hospitality, invented beer. Further references
to gods associated with the brewing process are
found in Egyptian mythology, the Sumerian tra-
dition, and even Norse mythology including a
brew-kettle made by Tor (dibs!).
Beer has roots that extend far back into civi-
lization, and as archaeologist Patrick McGovern
suggests, could be the very reason for the begin-
nings of civilization. In a work of historical
research we can all support, McGovern suggests
that the desire for beer, and the agricultural
products required to produce it, required human
beings to establish agricultural societies, with
good beer as the initial motivation for settling
down.
Whether or not beer exists as the fundamen-
tal reason for settling into civilization, the fact
remains that beer is a fundamental element of
human culture one that is responsibly shared
between nations, factions, and generations.

Skye is an 8-month old purebred
Border Collie who lives next door. He
bolts towards everyone he meets,
including baby carriages and other
dogs, much to his owner Judys
chagrin. He loves to play soccer,
walk to the park, and hang over the
fence barking until the neighbours
come out to see him.
