Fogartyville and South Arts Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers present a screening of “One Pint at a Time” with an appearance by filmmakers Aaron Hosé and Brigitte Hosé.
Craft beer generates tens of billions of dollars annually for the U.S. economy. Despite beer’s Egyptian and African heritage, these traditions have been mostly forgotten and are rarely found in American brewing culture.
Today, Black-owned breweries make up less than 1 percent of the nearly 9,000 breweries in operation. Eager to shift the historical perception of who makes and drinks beer, Black brewers, brand owners and influencers across the country are reshaping the craft beer industry and the future of America’s favorite adult beverage.
Huston Lett, co-owner and head brewer of Tampa’s Bastet Brewing, which is featured in the documentary, will provide samples of his beer prior to the screening.
