Join us on Friday, October 14 for Last Call: ¡Salud! to American Latinos in Beer. Hosted by the American Brewing History Initiative in collaboration with the National Museum of the American Latino, this year’s event will explore the past, present, and future of American Latinos in the brewing industry, in celebration of the recently opened Molina Family Latino Gallery at the National Museum of American History.
Latinos represent a diverse and vibrant thread among the nation’s brewers and beer lovers. Many of these brewers reach for a variety of ingredients with Latin roots—prickly pear, piloncillo sugar, tamarind, guava, and more—as they create new beer styles. Building taprooms and communities that look, sound, and taste innovative, inclusive, and delicious, they are writing the next chapter in American beer history. Join us as we raise a glass to say, ¡Salud!
