History:

Created by yours truly on 21st February 2015 at the Cabinet Room, London, England and so named due to its ingredients including beer and Byrrh aperitif (also pronounced 'beer') so "brew" seemed appropriate, helped by the track Bitches Brew on the brilliant 1961 Bitches Brew studio album by Miles Davis, the American jazz trumpeter, composer and bandleader.
