'rom where I sit . . . Joe Marsh Grandma Hoskins knows a lot about history but when we asked her where the first brew ery was built in America, she wouldn't take sides. "You see," says Grandma, "wherever the colonists settled, one of the first things they thought about was food and beer ... In fact, one reason why the Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock was because the Mayflow er was runnin' short of beer." Well, that was a. new one on us, but Grandma showed it to us --just as it was written in the Mayflower's log. And it seems that all through our early American history beer sort of tempered the hardships and helped to make us a toler ant, moderate people. From where I sit, beer is the American drink of moderation and friendliness-kind of a sym bol of our personal liberty.
