A Difficult Time
From 1955 to 1965 there was a war right in the middle of America. No, it wasn’t a war like World War II or the Revolutionary War. It was a war for the heart and soul of this country to determine once and for all if America was really going to be a land of equal opportunity for all. It is a war that eventually took on the name of “The Civil Rights Movement.”

The Cost of Independence
Establishment of British Rule in the Indian Subcontinent British entered the subcontinent in the 15th century as traders. They established the East India Company to facilitate their trade in the subcontinent. At that time, the magnificent Mughal Empire (a prominent Muslim Empire) was ruling India and the majority of the population was Hindus, Muslims, and Sikhs. After the death of Mughal Emperor Aurangzeb Alamgir in 1707, Mughal Empire started weakening due to internal and external issues. English men gradually started interfering in politics and exploiting the resources of India in the name of trade and economic development. In 1857, Muslims, Hindus, and Sikhs fought a war of independence against the British but due to an untrained army, lack of coordination, and funds, they lost the war. The British became the sole owners of India in 1858 and occupied all the Indian provinces after killing the entire royal family during the Indian Rebellion of 1857. The last Mughal Emperor Bahadur Shah Zafar was sent into exile.

The Decline of The First Beer Family
Anheuser-Busch began brewing Budweiser beer in 1876. The brewing process takes 30 days, and once brewed, the beer can be kept in a cool place for 110 days. Adolf's taste and judgment were correct, and Budweiser quickly became the king of sales when it was introduced to the American market. At its peak, Anheuser-Busch's Budweiser had a 50 percent market share in the United States -- that is, one out of every two bottles of beer sold in the United States at the time was Budweiser.

Big Brewing: Lies, Fueds and S. Carlsbergensis.
What’s in beer? When I last asked this at a fancy gastropub, around a polished wooden table and ridiculously priced pints, I received a bunch of blank stares. One mate tentatively responded “hops?”.

How Beer Shaped the Modern World

In Praise of the Bellissima Bellini
My favorite food and wine pairing is the bellini cocktail. In essence, it's fruit juice for grownups, but that description hardly does it justice. Prosecco and white peach puree team up for a sophisticated yet entirely approachable potent potable. Like the mimosa, which pairs sparkling wine with orange juice, the bellini is lovely to have along with a sumptuous brunch. But it's also the perfect thirst quencher at any time, especially on a hot summer day in Venice, where it was invented.
