It's All About the Beer:
The history of beer began over 6,000 years ago, much later in 1516 the German's established the Reinheitsgebot purity law to provide assurance of quality, though the beers remained dark and cloudy for centuries thereafter. The first clear golden beer was brewed in 1842 by a visionary German brewmaster for the Pilsner Urquell Brewery in Pilsen, Czech Republic, setting a high quality standard that to this day continues to deliver an intensely rewarding taste. Craft brewers are passionate about the beer styles they brew and the fantastic local beer cultures originating from Germany, Czech Republic, the UK, Belgium, provided a great foundation. More recently modern hazy New England IPA beers with amazing hop aromatics has brought this passion for brewing craft beer to a new level.
