Beer From First Principles
Explain beer as a connected system of ingredients, transformations, perception, place, history, and culture.
Generation C · Learning Paths
Build understanding across the Beer Universe
Nine curated, source-aware journeys connect styles, ingredients, process, sensory science, history, geography, design, hospitality, and homebrew systems thinking without turning consumption into progress.

Homebrew Systems Thinking — No Recipe Required
Trace a homebrew-scale conceptual flow across ingredients, brewing stages, fermentation, conditioning, packaging, and quality context without prescribing a recipe.
Progress contract
Static now. Persistent later through ICU.
The no-JS baseline communicates ordered progress semantically. Future completion persistence, accounts, Save state, analytics, and personalization remain ICU-owned.
