Patricia M. Salmon, Staten Island Museum's retired history curator, lectures on "Archaeological Discoveries in Brewing: From the Ancients to Staten Island’s Nineteenth Century Brewery Barons." Ancient breweries have been discovered in Israel, Turkey, Cyprus, China, and elsewhere. Let’s look at the brewing past, both in ancient times and in our own borough, as we examine Staten Island’s 19th century German lager beer breweries and the bottle digs that have occurred locally.
