U.s brewing history
Brewing beer in the United States dates back long before Europeans arrived, when Native Americans brewed beer from a variety of ingredients. To ferment their beer, they fermented corn, birch sap, and water. When the first colonists arrived in Virginia, they began mixing their brewing traditions with the available ingredients – and corn, too. Since then, brewing and brewing have been a key occupation in the colonies. Interestingly, the first white child born in Manhattan grew up to be America's first brewer..
Today, the brewery established by David G. Yuengling is the country's oldest operating brewery. The brewery was founded by David G. Yuengling in the United States. In 1829, he founded the Eagle Brewery. The brewery is still in the family to this day, which is amazing.
