Purinton is a Food and World historian whose work focuses primarily on the sociocultural relationships of empire, trade, and technology in the history of beer and brewing. His first book Globalization in a Glass: The Rise of Pilsner Beer through Technology, Taste, and Empire (Bloomsbury Academic Press, Food History Series, 2023) examines the development and spread of this light golden lager beer and how it became the only truly global style of beer.He is also the author of a chapter on the history of European beer in nineteenth century South Africa in “Alcohol Flows Across Cultures: Drinking Cultures in Transnational and Comparative Perspective” (Routledge) and has a regular column on the Boston beer scene with the northeast beer periodical, Yankee Brew News.In highlighting the evolution of consumer tastes through changing hierarchical relationships between the British metropole and colonies, as well as the evolution of business organizations and practices, Globalization in a Glass contributes to ongoing debates about globalization, empire, and trade. It argues that, despite the might and power of the British Empire as a colonizing force, the effects of globalization, imperial trade networks, and colonial migration led to the domination of the most popular Continental European style of beer, the Pilsner, over British-style ales. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events3/banners/f67c1970-01e6-11f1-9f54-dfa1d1aacd36-rimg-w1200-h212-dcffffff-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/brookline/pépin-lecture-series-globalization-in-a-glass-with-malcom-purrinton/100001982354553834 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 1 hour - Location: 808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124 - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fpepin-lecture-series-globalization-in-a-glass-with-malcom-purrinton-tickets-1982354553834 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Brookline - **state**: MA - **country**: United States - **location**: 808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124 - **lat**: 42.3501716 - **long**: -71.1116649 - **full address**: 808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124, 808 Commonwealth Avenue, Brookline, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Boston University Programs in Food & Wine (https://allevents.in/org/boston-university-programs-in-food-and-wine/18016556) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/4477db3219893113eb6bba48fa6312d1518b1db4d1717d4ccdb7c21fc5d126bd-rimg-w1200-h600-dcdcd6c3-gmir.jpg?v=1772241742 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/445a8dc049131156c225f49071433256be41d393a4378233e8e1053078926ec9-rimg-w400-h400-dcddd6c4-gmir.jpg?v=1770222695 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Mon, 23 Feb, 2026 at 06:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** 808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124, 808 Commonwealth Avenue, Brookline, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Boston University Programs in Food & Wine - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** art, literary-art - **Q**: What is the duration of the event? - **A:** 1 hour - **Q**: What is the location of the event? - **A:** 808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124 - **Q**: What is the languages of the event? - **A:** English - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Pépin Lecture Series - Globalization in a Glass with Malcom Purrinton ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Pépin Lecture Series - Globalization in a Glass with Malcom Purrinton", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/4477db3219893113eb6bba48fa6312d1518b1db4d1717d4ccdb7c21fc5d126bd-rimg-w1200-h600-dcdcd6c3-gmir.jpg?v=1772241742", "startDate": "2026-02-23", "endDate": "2026-02-23", "url": "https://allevents.in/brookline/pépin-lecture-series-globalization-in-a-glass-with-malcom-purrinton/100001982354553834", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "808 Commonwealth Avenue Room 124", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "808 Commonwealth Avenue", "postalCode": "02446", "addressLocality": "Brookline", "addressRegion": "MA", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "42.3501716", "longitude": "-71.1116649" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Join Malcom Purrinton as he discusses his book, Globalization in a Glass:The Rise of Pilsner Beer through Technology, Taste and Empire.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "2026-02-23", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/brookline/pépin-lecture-series-globalization-in-a-glass-with-malcom-purrinton/100001982354553834" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-05", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-05", "url": "https://allevents.in/brookline/pépin-lecture-series-globalization-in-a-glass-with-malcom-purrinton/100001982354553834", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Boston University Programs in Food & Wine", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/boston-university-programs-in-food-and-wine/18016556" } ] } ] ```
