They had a goddess, her name was NinKasi. She was a brewmaster. For over a millenium and centuries after, women continued to brew beer. Women entr …

It was during the dinner break during the final day of the seminar that I conspired with Paul Schutzman and Mai-Ling Garcia -- two of the very cool people with whom I'd made a connection during our th …
