Hire the Regimental Brewmeister

It’s reached that time of the year where I start planning for 2024 and I am hoping to include you in the mix of organizations I support next year.  I am emailing you today in the hopes that you will consider inviting either the Regimental Brewmeister or the Colonial Surveyor to one of your events next year. 

Add excitement and authentic color to an event, or create more traffic to your site, with Philadelphia’s best Colonial Brewer and tradesman.  Whether it is a reenactment, motion picture, a tavern night for a private event, or other endeavor, I can bring can bring a real sense of authenticity and fun to your event and make it an occasion that people will long remember.  Every large gathering of people in the 18th Century needed a brewer.  I not only provided the libations that as Doctor Franklin so clearly stated “is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy,” but I also make sure the that people remained healthy and free of waterborne disease.

Philadelphia is also a great center of science and technical learning in the 18th Century.  Perhaps your group would like to meet Joseph Priestley first hand and learn how he discovered the element Oxygen.  Perhaps your group wants to learn the fascinating story of how in 1769, we actually measured the size of the solar system.  You may want to see an 18th Century surveying crew in action or observe a brewery or distillery.   I bring all of these to real tangible life.  In my presentations, participants are encouraged not just to watch but to take part in the using the tools and working through the problems and, of course, drinking the beer.

My rates are very reasonable and I give substantial discounts to non-profit historical sites.  Let’s turn back the pages of history in an extraordinary way!

I have conduct presentations and tours for the National Park Service, Carpenters Hall, Pottsgrove Manor, Hope Lodge, Graeme Park, and with the 2nd PA/43rd Regiment of Foot and several other Philadelphia region historic sites for several years. I routinely speak to large audiences and my presentation is tight, interactive, dynamic, and engaging.  I am eager to expand my repartee to additional skills so are looking to develop something new, I am also interested in working on those sorts of project.

My goal is to bring history alive through interactive portrayal of ordinary American life in the late 18th Century (1750—1799) My persona are: Journeyman Brewer; Cordwainer (leather tradesman but not cobbler), Statesman and Orator; Chandler (candle and soap maker); Gentleman Scientist; and, Soldier in either the British Regular Army, the Centennial Army, or one of the various Militia. Let me help you experience history 1st hand!
