That’s according to Plato and we have to agree.

Beer has seen us all through some tough times. It’s presence in human life can be dated back at least as far as the 5th millennium BC, and it’s often credited (along with bread) for building civilization and allowing humanity to develop technology. Thanks to beer, we had something to drink when water wasn’t safe to consume. The brew got us through the dark ages and has consistently proved to be the perfect gift for anyone regardless of socioeconomic status. The Pharaohs of Egypt enjoyed it just as much as the slaves building the pyramids did. And the brewing of beer was not gender specific; many of the early brewers were women.

Beer is the universal beverage. Today there are hundreds, if not thousands of variations of the palatable potable thanks to a resurgence of craft breweries. There is literally something for everyone, from the Chimays to the Schlitzes. We’ve felt compelled to celebrate and showcase this delicious drink’s diversity and so, we’ve begun traveling the brewery circuit, interviewing brew masters, sampling their wares and sharing our findings with the masses.

We call our show “Beer Brothers,” and we’re currently filming for its pilot. But in the meantime, we’re breaking out our interviews into shareable segments to share with our friends. We like to give the breweries the content too, so they can share it with their friends and continue to spread the word about their delicious libations.
