Put That In My Horn: Drinking Culture and the Renaissance Faire - Part 1 (With Marilynn and Renee Hendrie)

This week on Breaking Spirits, we are joined by the wonderful Hendrie sisters to discuss the world of the Renaissance Faire, and its deep connections to drinking culture! How did the Faire get started? Is there more to drink there than simple mead? And what does all of this have to do with the rise of craft brewing? Find out all of this and more this week on Breaking Spirits!
