Field Museum resurrects ancient Peruvian beer - Chicago
A couple of Chicago brewers have re-created a beer first produced more than a millennium ago by a group of cloistered women who worked atop a mountain in the Andes range of Peru. The first step for John Laffler and David Bleitner, the pair behind Off Color Brewing, was to pick the brain of Field Museum archeologist Ryan Williams, who unearthed an ancient high altitude brewery in 2004. Their collaboration resulted in a beer named Wari, after the people who first made it, that will debut March 3 at the museum’s Field Bistro and hit shelves at Chicago liquor stores days later.
