The Smithsonian Needs a Beer Historian

Think you know beer? I mean... really know it, not just enjoy a cold one during the game. Think you know the history of beer? Again, not just a small collection of 70s era Budweiser cans. If you do, and have an advanced degree in business, brewing, or culinary arts, then the nation's top museum has a job for you.

The Smithsonian's National Museum of American History has an opening for an expert on beer. The three year committment will require you to cultivate interesting artifacts and information from the early days of American brewing, to Prohibition's effects on American breweries, to the modern craft brew boom.

If you think you're up to the task, then responsibly crack open a brewski, irresponsibly binge a few episodes of Cheers (it's on Netflix) and check out the job posting here. For a quick crash course, check out the Modern Marvels episode on beer:
