A chat on history, culture, and how we can improve our writing and understanding of beer by looking back in time. We’ll hear from Tara Nurin, who wrote a book that explores women’s fundamental yet forgotten role in brewing, and Tiah Edmunson-Morton, an archivist, teacher, and brewing history curator who researches the topic.
Our guests:
Tara Nurin: In addition to writing monthly beer and spirits content for Forbes.com, BJCP-certified freelance journalist Tara Nurin teaches university classes focused on beer and spirits and offers marketing consulting services to the craft beverage industry. Her new book is “A Woman’s Place Is in the Brewhouse: A Forgotten History of Alewives, Brewsters, Witches, and CEOs.”
Tiah Edmunson-Morton: An archivist at Oregon State University, Tiah curates the Oregon Hops and Brewing Archives and explores allied collecting areas for food and drink in the Northwest through content acquisition and access, conducting oral histories, and outreach to industries and communities.
