'History Of Beer' Event Coming To Historic Westfield Site

WESTFIELD, NJ — Take a trip without a sip at this family-friendly event through the history of brewing at the historic Miller-Cory House Museum.

This educational event will take guests back to 4,000 BC Sumeria where the practice can be traced back to its beginnings.

While the program is geared towards adults, families with children are able to purchase tickets.

Admission is $5 for adults and teens 13 and older, $4 for children ages 3 to 12, and free for kids under 3.

Walk-up tickets will be available, and no reservations are necessary.

"History of Beer, Without the Buzz" is on Feb. 22 from 2 to 4 p.m.

The nonprofit Miller-Cory House Museum and Westfield Historical Society have been working since 1968 to educate about and preserve culture from generations prior.

The site of the historic home has been recreated to resemble life on a farm in the years 1740 through 1820.

The "living history" museum was actually built in 1740 and holds numerous events each year both on-site and through partnerships around the community.

Along with year-round tours, the site also welcomes schools, Scout groups, and other organizations for research purposes.

The museum is located at 614 Mountain Ave. There is no on-site parking, and visitors should utilize Mountain Avenue for available areas.
