This week we are discussing the globalization and localization of food and drink. To help illustrate these concepts, please read about Sister Doris. Please read the following and share your thoughts:
“Meet the German Nun Who Brews Beer–Sister Doris”. CNN Travel, October 29, 2014. https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/german-beer-nun/index.htmlLinks to an external site.
Read (or listen, the audio link is at the top of the article) to the following:
“A Pilgrimage to Meet Germany’s Last Beer-Brewing Nun.” NPR. August 23, 2021. https://www.npr.org/2021/08/23/1026707774/a-pilgrimage-to-meet-germanys-last-beer-brewing-nun?ft=nprml&f=1004Links to an external site.
If you want to watch a video of Sister Doris giving a tour of her brewery, here is the link:
“Sister Doris, last nun brewing in the world. Mallersdorf Abbey Germany” (13:30).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v= to an external site.
Is this “pilgrimage” considered tourism? Would you consider making a “pilgrimage” such as this? Do you think Sister Doris considers herself and her craft as tourism products? How is her identity tied to her craft? Why does this local product/story have a global appeal? What will happen when Doris no longer makes beer?
