Washington was dead before the White House was built, so he didn’t brew any beer at the White House.
I did catch the tail end of the segment though. Did they discuss the brew process at all? The President endorsing Homebrew prior to the Super Bowl is pretty cool exposure for the hobby… Well maybe. Fox will probably find a way to say he screwed it up lol.
Good correction. I didn’t mean to call you out, but I’m a history geek and couldnt let it go. Sorry. They replicate some of the beers of the time of the Founding in a pub in historic Philadelphia. Pretty cool.
right! it was cool. I was telling my wife, how cool would it be to work in the white house and decide you want to make your beer there. I’d have to step it up and increase the batch size for sure!
I also caught that segment at the end, noticed two carboys on tables fermenting away! Also noticed no brew haulers for safety and the carboys werent covered to protect from light!
Here is a press release from while back. Video shows the head chef at the White House and he gives an ok overview of the process. It looks like the fermenting beer is stored in a basement pantry. I’m guessing they brought them out for the interview.
Ok what am I missing about the pumpkin peach pun? I have heard it now twice and got the email for the recipe from NB, saw it on a local brewery’s insta some one saying it, what am I missing
A related historic note. Election campaigning for the founding fathers mostly occurred over a pint or two at the local tavern–better than the endless rounds of negative TV spots slashing the opposition that we have now.
And did you hear that the conservative political organization for the Koch Brothers of Wisconsin has pledged to spend $889 MILLION for the 2016 Presidential Campaign.
