My friends and I are planning a party at our house. The theme being the the time period of prohibition (with the 40's tacked on for good measure of variety). We plan to serve food, mixed drinks, and beer from the period as well as decorate my basement bar as a speakeasy and of course make some beer correct for the time.
I was wondering if anyone had any beer recipes that would be period correct? These would not need to beer only beers popular in the US, but Europe would also be a fine location for finding beer recipes. I believe lagers were very popular right before prohibition, but I also remember reading brown ale was very popular in the 1920s.
Also, not beer related, if you have any favorite mixed drinks from the era, it would also help with my research.
