America 250: How Well Do You Really Know America? (ep. 628)

As part of our America 250 series, Pigweed, Crowhill, and Longinus put each other to the test with a wide-ranging game of American trivia.

How many people signed the Declaration of Independence? Which president served the shortest term? Why did George Washington’s resignation astonish the world? Which four states meet at Four Corners? And could you answer the same questions that left some college students completely stumped?

Along the way, we discuss fascinating stories from American history, including the Revolutionary War, the Constitution, Valley Forge, the Statue of Liberty, Fort McHenry, the American flag, and many of the remarkable coincidences and personalities that shaped the United States.

Before the trivia begins, we also review a Baltimore Pilsner from Guilford Hall Brewery, comparing it to the classic pilsner style and debating whether it really fits the category.

Whether you’re a history buff or just enjoy learning something new, grab a beer and play along to see how much you know about America.

In this episode:

* Baltimore Pilsner from Guilford Hall Brewery
