Event Details
Which Michigan brewery’s mascot was designed by Walt Disney Studios? Which brewery employed a young engineer named Henry Ford? Which brewer ran an amusement park in Detroit? Were women involved in the early days of brewing beer? And just how many Detroit brewers also served as the city's mayor?
Enjoy an intoxicating ride with author Patti F. Smith through the beers of the early settlers to Prohibition and the brewers that remained standing after two world wars. Michigan takes its beer seriously – it’s time to get to know those early pioneers!
