Where Can People Discover Live Music In St. Paul?
The earliest human writings were discovered on clay tablets written in Sumerian language. On one
of those tablets a poem was inscribed. It was a "Hymn to Kinkasi". Kinkasi was a goddess of
alcohol for the Sumerians. The poem was, in fact, a recipe on how to brew beer.

The Americanization of beer began when it was first brewed in Virginia, in 1587. The Colonist
used corn to make their ale. In 1612, the 1st known brewery was established by Hans

colonies was the French settlement of Kaskaskia, now known as Illinois. But it was the large
German population of Milwaukee that really took brewing seriously
