response: In cottages, but then they created farms for it and monastaries
history: I just got hired as a financial analyst for a brewery. That is pretty cool! Those businesses make and sell beer correct? Yes, though I wonder how long people have been brewing beer. It has been taking place since at least 2500 BC if you can believe that! That's insane. People have been getting drunk for that long? How did they brew their beer back then?
knowledge: Brewing was initially a cottage industry, with production taking place at home; by the ninth century monasteries and farms would produce beer on a larger scale, selling the excess; and by the eleventh and twelfth centuries larger, dedicated breweries with eight to ten workers were being built.
