South Carolina: Conquest Brewing
As stated in the beginning of this article, beer has been around for centuries. Looking through the history books, beer, in its many forms, has played a role in many historical events. From celebratory moments to tearful despair, the world’s most popular alcoholic beverage has been there. Conquest Brewing in South Carolina honors beer’s historical importance.
According to Conquest Brewing, their “beers pay homage to bygone times of war and peace, to tales both fantastic and dreadfully real.” While this statement might be somewhat intellectual, the concept is interesting. It is said that history is told by the winners. Why should marketing affect which beer to drink?
Conquest Brewing named its year round beers after historical, literary figures. Its names pair well with the beers that they brew. One beer to try is the Artemis Blonde.
First, Artemis is the daughter of Zeus and is a goddess. Choosing a name like Artemis gives a clue to the type of flavors to expect from this blonde beer. The beer is strong yet refreshingly sweet. A few tastes of honey add a lightness to the beer. But, the beer has a slightly bitter taste too. The Artemis Blonde welcomes your tastes buds but warns you not to push too hard. Just like a powerful woman warrior.
Conquest Brewing beers can be found at a variety of bars and retailers.
