A Drinkable History
Pretty Things Once Upon a Time 1838 & Once Upon a Time 1945 A real back to basics brewing. These guys went back to historical recipes and recreated beers the exact way they were made in 1838 and the same beer as it would have been made in 1945. Lots of differences in history and culture in those two separate dates. Queen Victoria was crowned in 1838 ushering a golden age and by 1945 Europe was at War for the second time. Come taste the difference that history makes in the beer.
