SUMMARY:Beer For History - Featuring von Trapp Brewing
DESCRIPTION:Date: October 5\, 2023Time: 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.Location: Folsom TavernCost: $10 \nUnder 21: Free admission \nAt this Beer for History\, Stowe\, Vermont’s von Trapp Brewing will showcase three of their brews. \nDifferent history programming will be ‘on tap’ at each event\, including music\, trivia or colonial tavern games. Featuring both indoor and outdoor seating. Families Welcome! \nGet into the spirit with the brewery that is a little of Austria\, a lot of Vermont\, von Trapp Brewing. They don’t come to our neck of the woods often\, so don’t miss them! Beer for History is presented by Presented by Donahue Tucker & Ciandella. \nvon Trapp Brewing will pour the following beers:\nBohemian Pilsner: Our award-winning interpretation of a Bohemian Style Pilsner. Spicy\, citrus peel botanicals combine with a dry\, peppery finish to create a truly thirst-quenching lager. A beer that demands you take more than one sip. \nDunkel: The original dark lager of Munich and the first beer “style” born out of the German Beer Purity Law. Creamy\, toffee aromas balance the bitterness of Munich malts in our roasted brown lager. Although dark in color\, Dunkel is medium in body and finishes dry and clean\, resulting in a rich lager that can be enjoyed throughout the year. \nStowe Style Festbier: This collaboration with Narragansett Brewing Company of Providence\, Rhode Island is the next offering in the Stowe Style series: a highly aromatic\, hop-forward take on the traditional festbier. Inspired by the lighter style of lager served on the grounds of Munich’s annual Oktoberfest celebration\, this single-decocted pale lager is brewed with pilsner malt and loaded with bright\, floral noble hops in the whirlpool. \nAbout American Independence Center\nLocated in Exeter\, NH\, the American Independence Center features a rare collection of historic artifacts that shed light on the Revolutionary War. Examples of popular items in our exhibits include a dragoon pistol\, brown bess musket\, and 18th century powder horn. Many of our programs offer insight into civic duties\, civic engagement and civic responsibility\, while we also feature a variety of things to do in NH\, such as camps for kids\, festivals\, summer festival\, reenactments\, and homeschool programs. Perfect for a day trip or weekend trips\, we believe in inclusivity and inclusive history and the spirit behind the phrase\, ‘we the people’.

SUMMARY:Tavern Talk: The First Amendment
DESCRIPTION:Date: October 10\, 2023\nTime: 6:30 p.m.\nLocation: Folsom Tavern\, 164 Water St.\, Exeter\, NH\nCost: FREE \nThe First Amendment protects our most basic freedoms\, none more important than freedom of speech. But what do we do about speech that threatens to destroy the social fabric? \nMade possible by a grant from New Hampshire Humanities\, this FREEpresentation considers the constitutional arguments for and against hate speech codes and why the Supreme Court ruled against St. Paul’s hate speech ordinance. If hate speech codes are unconstitutional\, it falls on citizens to find other ways to counter hateful speech. \nWe’ll explore what capacities citizens need to preserve freedom and the social fabric. Could it be that persuasion and deliberation might be better strategies for all of us? \nAbout Meg Mott\nAfter twenty years of teaching political theory and constitutional law to Marlboro College undergraduates\, Meg Mott has taken her love of argument to the general public. She attended the University of New Hampshire in the 1970s and is currently teaching at Keene State College. Meg’s award-winning series Debating Our Rights on the first ten amendments brings civil discussions on contentious issues to public libraries and colleges. \nThis program is made possible by a grant from New Hampshire Humanities.

Examples of popular items in our exhibits include a dragoon pistol\, brown bess musket\, and 18th century powder horn.
