“There’s a difference between vines and bines. Grapes are considered vines and they have tendrils and that’s how they pull themselves up. Hops are bines, they don’t have tendrils they have tri-combs and that’s how they pull themselves up.” [10:00] –Deitrich Gehring on Beer Sessions Radio
“Hops have great antibacterial properties and they’re good for treating infections. When you make beer with hops, the hops act as a preservative. This made beer last long and expanded the trade of beer.” [40:00] — Laura Ten Eyck on Beer Sessions Radio

Episode 114: Taverns and U.S. History: Jimmy Carbones talking about taverns on this weeks episode of Beer Sessions Radio. Christine Sismondo, author of America Walks into a Bar, is in the studio to offer s perspective on the importance of taverns as gathering places throughout history. Also in the studio are Ken Tirado of Killmeyers Old Bavarian Inn and Barry Smyth of Fraunces Tavern, two of the oldest taverns in New York City. Tune in to hear about some of the beers at Killmeyers and Fraunces Tavern, the importance of owner involvement in bars, the consequences of Prohibition in the United States, and why its important to keep old tavern traditions alive. This episode has been brought to you by GreatBrewers.com. I dont see the American Revolution happening without taverns. One interesting thing about Prohibition is that people are really invested in the story as something that created more problems than it solved. To some degree, its true, but if you look at the beginning of Prohibiti by Beer Sessions Radio (TM)
