Gillman Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I thought some people would be interested in my post at www.bartowel.com. This is a Toronto-oriented beer site (no whiskey).It is in the Forum, under Random Talk, and is headed "New York City and Beer, 1942". (No registration is necessary).It is about some period references to beer I found in a volume of collected writings on food and drink by Ludwig Bemelmans (1898-1962), a noted American writer and artist.I could have easily posted it here but had the bartowel site open so I put it there.Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffRenner Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 I thought some people would be interested in my post ... headed "New York City and Beer, 1942".Thanks for posting this link. You might be interested in this article in the late, lamented Brewing Techniques on the beers of Bushwick, Brooklyn, NYC.In it you will note that Trommer's was all-malt, as opposed to most of the others, which used some adjunct (corn or rice).Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
