Description:
It’s National Beer Day! As part of our America 250 programming, we’ll explore the history of taverns in early Connecticut. Taverns were more than just a place to drink. Travelers and locals alike saw taverns as a place to be entertained, spread news and gossip, have a good meal, and get a night’s lodging. Learn about how taverns were an essential part of every Connecticut town.
