Root beer is considered an ubiquitous beverage in the United States, but its modern blend is a far cry from its indigenous origins as a tea brewed by peoples in both North and South America. How did an herbal tea transform into a highly popular, effervescent soft drink commercially sold to the masses as well as a homebrew favorite? Start off with a lesson on the evolution of root beer that includes our own hometown root beer hero, Dorothy Molter otherwise known as the Root Beer Lady of Knife Lake, and end with root beer sampling and instruction on making your own homebrew. Each participant will make and take home 32oz of their own homemade root beer and leftover flavoring and yeast to make more at home, as well as a recipe booklet that includes not only the homebrew recipe used in class but also Dorothy Molter's root beer recipe.

This course includes free admission to the Dorothy Molter Museum located on the east-end of Ely. Participants may visit before or after this class.
