Beer Edition: The perfect puff for the perfect pour

Most importantly, they’re generally loved by people who enjoy both the aesthetic experience and the accompanying buzz. For those who know what kind of beer they like and are looking to branch out, check out our list of ideal beer and cannabis pairings.

Beer Edition: Beer isn’t just for men, so why do advertisers market it that way?

However, fermented beverages, which for so long have been marketed toward men, were actually created by women 9,000 years ago. Women during the early ages were always seen as belonging in the kitchen, meaning women were actually the first to brew beer, not men. Why is this the case, though? Why has beer been perceived as masculine rather than something to be consumed by anyone, no matter their gender?
