Women in brewing

Okay kiddo, let me explain about women in brewing. You know how sometimes we buy those drinks called beer? Well, people make that drink by mixing and cooking different ingredients like water, grains, and hops. The people who make this drink are called brewers and they work in places called breweries.

Now, for a long time, people used to think that only men could make beer. But that's not true at all because women can be fantastic brewers too! Some of the very first beers were actually made by women in ancient times. And today, we have many women who are also expert brewers.

But here's the thing, sometimes people still think that only men can make beer or that it's a man's job. That means, women who want to be brewers might not always have the same opportunities as men. So, it's important to talk about why women should be treated the same way as men when it comes to making beer.

And guess what? Many women are also coming together to start their own breweries and making really awesome beers that everyone loves to drink. So, whether you're a boy or a girl, you could become a great brewer someday if you work hard and have a passion for it!
