SUMMARY:In Search of Lost Hops
DESCRIPTION:Water\, malt\, yeast\, and hops: these are essential ingredients of beer. Hops\, specifically\, play an outsized role in determining its flavor and aroma.\n\nIn this historical presentation\, Jennifer Jordan will take us back to a brief but pivotal moment in the 19th century when Wisconsin produced much of the hops which is detailed in her new book\, Beer Ghosts: In Search of Lost Hops and the Women Who Grew Them. Those hops are not the only ghosts in Jordan's story\; haunting her book's pages are the young women whose harvest work was key to the American beer industry's rise.\n\nDue to the subject matter\, this will be a 21+ presentation and will include a free drink of your choice. \n\n \n\nAbout the presenter: \n\nJennifer Jordan is professor of sociology\, urban studies\, and history at the University of Wisconsin\, Milwaukee. She is the author of Beer Ghosts: In Search of Lost Hops and the Women who Grew Them (University of Chicago Press\, 2026)\, Edible Memory: The Lure of Heirloom Tomatoes and other Forgotten Foods (University of Chicago Press\, 2015) and Structures of Memory: Understanding Urban Change in Berlin and Beyond (Stanford University Press\, 2006).
