This tavern, like others of colonial times, sold, light wines and manufactured'malt liquors for its own trade. During the three years (1 760-1763) spent in the tavern, the young Henry learned much from the patriots assembled there to discuss the tyranny of the mother country. X A few years later the spirit of liberty kindled in that old Virginia tavern burst forth in Patrick Henry’s fiery speech which inflamed the country. Patrick Henry was a patriot but not a prohibitionist. An inventory of his estate shows that he manufactured liquors on two of his Virginia plantations. ‘ Indiana Brewers Association
