“American History in 7 Bottles” is an immersive journey through the nation’s past, exploring the pivotal role of iconic alcoholic beverages in shaping American culture and society. This unique class delves into the stories behind each bottle, beginning with colonial cider, a symbol of early settlers’ ingenuity and self-reliance. We’ll trace the path of dark rum through the complexities of the Triangle Trade, examining its economic impact and moral implications. As we move westward, American whiskey represents the rugged spirit of the frontier, highlighting the tension between federal authority and local autonomy during the Whiskey Rebellion. This exploration continues into the late 19th century, where lager beer reflects industrialization’s influence on urban working-class culture, shaped by immigration and innovation.
