Beer is much more extensively consumed than wine, but less adequately honored.
In a small way, I want to help put right that injustice. So come try a few beers with me. The last major style of beer to be introduced was Pilsner in 1842, but in all styles there are new efforts to rival the classics. No two breweries are alike. Although the basic principles of brewing are the same everywhere, the product of the mashtun, the brew kettle and the fermenting vessels depends very much on exactly where it is made.
