Space Craft is one giant hop-forward beer. The orbited hops propel the profile. Firm bitterness, with generous tropical notes like grapefruit, guava, and passionfruit co-pilot with piney and resiny hop aromas. This is not the first time that beer and space have collided. We know that space does some thing to beer that requires specialty bottles , and that there is the possibility of growing beer-making ingredients on Mars.

Seems like we might just have to get our hands on some to do our own experimentation there. It would probably go great with some space tacos. No word yet on whether or not any brewskis will be enjoyed back up in space. Click to expand. Replay Video. Saddle up, Yellowstone fans: There's even more Dutton family drama coming our way. Aptly titled , the show will take Yellowstone fans back more than years, giving deeper insight into the man that John Dutton is and why he loves his family's ranch so much.

Elliott, who isn't new to the world of westerns and cowboys, will play Shea Brennan, who Variety describes as a "tough cowboy with some underlying melancholy to be revealed as he guides the emigrants from Texas to Montana.

Fans should expect to see several surprise guest stars over the first season. The show filmed in Fort Worth, Texas. McGraw shared photos of his character's leather journal and bullet-ripped jeans, telling fans that he's "gettin in the groove for View this post on Instagram. A post shared by Tim McGraw thetimmcgraw.

It looks like Elliott has undergone the most hair-raising transformation, though. Nic Sheridan posted a cute snap of her hanging out with the famed actor, but fans couldn't help but notice his impressive shoulder-length locks.

At least this also confirms that his mustache is here to stay! While Yellowstone fans may hope for Kevin Costner sightings, it's highly unlikely, given that the show is placed more than a century earlier. So, about that epic teaser during the Super Bowl. In the second spot , snow whips through the mountains and a mysterious voice says, "I don't care if you live or die, but should you live, you tell 'em about me.

It really is the beginning of an empire before it was an empire," Sheridan says, laying out the foundation for the Yellowstone prequel. Unlike Yellowstone , won't air on Paramount Network. No word if this will change in the years to come.

The Amish keep to themselves. Bostonians called a special town meeting at Faneuil Hall on October 28 to discuss the matter. Here, they passed a resolution creating a committee to meet with the governor and express the concerns of the town.

Adams was selected head of the committee. Governor Hutchinson listened to their concerns but refused to share any relevant information with them. The Town Meeting then petitioned for the legislature to convene. During a meeting at Faneuil Hall on November 2, Adams offered a resolution calling for the establishment of Committees of Correspondence throughout Massachusetts and the creation of a Declaration of Rights of the Colonists.

After nearly a decade of riots, boycotts and protests, the final blow in the crisis with Parliament struck on May 10, Parliament passed the Tea Act. Designed to rescue the financially failing East India Tea Company, the Act granted the company a monopoly on sales in the colonies by appointing designated consignees. This allowed it to rid itself of a ruinous surplus of tea while also enabling the government to reinforce Parliament's right to tax the colonies.

News of the Tea Act sparked protest throughout the colonies. Outrage and threats against the consignees forced many to resign and tea ships to turn away. While this campaign of protest and intimidation succeeded in most colonies, Massachusetts was a different story. The tea consignees in Boston refused to be intimidated. On October 18, three tea ships sailed for Boston. The first to arrive was the Dartmouth on November By law, the duty on the tea had to be paid within 20 days or the cargo would be seized by customs and put up for auction.

Adams and his fellow radicals knew that if the tea landed either voluntarily or by seizure it would eventually be sold and thus taxed. Their aim was to prevent it from being unloaded entirely.

An emergency town meeting was called on October 28 at Faneuil Hall, but the Hall soon filled beyond its capacity and the meeting was adjourned to the Old South Meeting House. Customs officials refused. Using Adams's Committee of Correspondence, Boston sought and received support for its resolution from many towns throughout Massachusetts.

The Beaver and the Eleanor soon joined the Dartmouth. Guards were placed on the wharf to guard the three ships. The 20 day deadline on the Dartmouth was December After several meetings at Old South and several unsuccessful attempts at turning back the ships, Adams chaired a final meeting on December This time attendees appealed directly to Governor Thomas Hutchinson.

Men with faces covered in soot and charcoal made their way to the three ships bearing the tea. After hours of teamwork, the members destroyed chests of tea.

There is no evidence that Adams took part in the destruction of the tea, but he wasted no time in praising it:. You cannot imagine the height of joy that sparkles in the eyes and animates the countenances as well as the hearts of all we meet on this occasion. When news of the destroyed tea reached England in early , Parliament reacted swiftly and harshly with a series of bills known as the Coercive Acts.

The first bill, the Boston Port Bill, closed the port of Boston to incoming as well as outgoing trade until Massachusetts made reparations for the destroyed tea. The Bill also transferred the seat of colonial government from Boston to Salem, some 25 miles north. The Massachusetts Government Act soon followed. The Government Act stripped Massachusetts of its Charter and limited town meetings to one per year unless otherwise directed by the Governor.

The Acts only united the people of Massachusetts. Through the Committees of Correspondence network, Boston sought and soon received aid not only from Massachusetts towns but also from communities throughout the colonies. On June 17, Adams drafted the Resolves of the Massachusetts House of Representatives , asking for both aid and advice:. Whereas the towns of Boston and Charlestown are suffering under the Hand of Power, by shutting up the harbor by an armed force, which is in the opinion of this House an invasion of the said towns evidently designed to compel the inhabitants thereof into a submission to taxes imposed on them without their consent and whereas it appears to this House that this attack upon the said towns for the purpose of the aforesaid is an attack made upon this whole Provence and continent which threatens the total destruction of the liberties of all British America.

To enforce these laws and bring Massachusetts under control, General Thomas Gage was appointed military Governor of the province and 4, troops were sent to garrison the town. Samuel Adams reacted quickly.

In June, he chaired a committee in the House of Representatives, now meeting in Salem, which proposed electing individuals to represent Massachusetts at a colonial congress scheduled to meet in Philadelphia to discuss the crisis in Boston. Needless to say, he was selected to be one of the delegates. As the First Continental Congress convened in September, the situation in Massachusetts only grew more desperate.

In Adams's absence, his good friend Joseph Warren assumed the leadership role of the opposition. Warren soon penned The Suffolk Resolves , a virtual declaration of independence for Massachusetts. Working together closely through correspondence, Adams and Warren put forth a bold suggestion - the creation of an opposition government!

Adams knew that for such a plan to be successful the people of Massachusetts must be united, writing to Warren:. That union is most likely to be obtained by a consultation of deputies from several towns either in a House of Representatives or a Provincial Congress…the people would be united in what they would easily see to be a constitutional opposition to tyranny. On September 25, Adams wrote to Warren informing him that the Congress had given its assent to his Suffolk Resolves , and:.

They strongly recommend your perseverance in a firm and temperate conduct, and give you a full pledge of their united efforts on your behalf. I have been assured in private conversation with individuals, that, if you should be driven to the necessity of acting in defense of your lives or liberty, you would be justified by their constituents and openly supported by all means in their power. The Massachusetts Provincial Congress first met in October and assumed all legislative, financial, and military powers for the colony beyond Boston.

The die had been cast and the possibility of civil war loomed. The Continental Congress in Philadelphia adjourned in November with a mandate to reconvene in May of should matters fail to improve. Samuel Adams returned to Massachusetts to take his seat in the Provincial Congress. There he worked tirelessly for the next five months to obtain and distribute aid to the people of Boston still suffering under the closure of the port. Meanwhile, General Gage was under increased pressure from the Ministry in England to put an end to the rebellion in Massachusetts.

Gage wished to avoid conflict as much as possible and did not initially attempt to arrest opposition leaders like Samuel Adams for fear that such a move might spark a violent backlash.

Instead, Gage sought to prevent the Provincial Congress from acquiring any further military supplies. Each side attempted to capture local gunpowder stores and military ordnance before the other. On April 14, Gage received letters from the Secretary of State which forced his hand. He was ordered to disarm the militias and arrest the leaders of rebellion immediately. The arrival of spring brought no improvement to the state of affairs in Massachusetts.

A second Continental Congress was deemed necessary. Before departing for Philadelphia in early April, Samuel Adams and John Hancock attended a session of the Provincial Congress then meeting in the town of Concord, 15 miles northwest of Boston. Meanwhile, bowing to the increasing pressure to act, Gage ordered a column of troops to Concord to seize and destroy a suspected cache of munitions.

Ironically, the march took them directly through Lexington. There is no evidence to suggest that Gage had ordered the arrest of Adams and Hancock that day, but fearing the possible capture of the two men, Joseph Warren dispatched riders Paul Revere and William Dawes to warn the delegates to move on. The troops arrived in the Lexington on the morning of the April 19 just as Hancock and Adams escaped.

Events began to progress quickly in the spring and early summer of In rapid succession, the Continental Congress established an Army, was notified of the Battle at Bunker Hill , and ordered an invasion of Canada.

Throughout the years of struggle leading to the Second Continental Congress, Adams came to the realization that allegiance to the Crown and possible reconciliation with Parliament was impossible. Independence seemed the only logical course. The outbreak of hostilities solidified his conviction and he worked deliberately and patiently to convince his fellow delegates that a complete break with Great Britain was necessary.

As the calendar turned from to , war began to spread throughout the colonies. Adams gained more support for the cause of independence:. Is not America already independent? Why then not declare it? Can nations at war be said to be dependent either upon the other? The ideas of independence spread far and wide among the colonies. Many of the leading men see the absurdity of supposing that allegiance is due to a sovereign who has already thrown us out of his protection.

There is a two-fold liberty, natural I mean as our nature is now corrupt and civil or federal. The first is common to man with beasts and other creatures…The other kind of liberty I call civil or federal; it may also be called moral, in reference to the covenant between God and man, in the moral law, and the politic covenants and constitutions between men themselves.

This liberty is the proper end and object of authority and cannot subsist without it: and it is a liberty to that only which is good, just and honest. This liberty you are to stand for, with the hazard not only of your goods, but of your lives if need be.

Following several weeks of debate, Congress adopted the resolution on July 2, On July 4, after years of determined effort arguing for the rights of Americans in defiance of Parliament, Adams cast his vote to ratify the Declaration of Independence. Thirty-three years after posing the argument "Whether it be lawful to resist the supreme magistrate, if the commonwealth cannot be otherwise preserved?

Among the many sources drawn upon in the creation of the document were the Massachusetts Charter and the Massachusetts Body of Liberties. The people of Massachusetts ratified the Constitution of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in their town meetings in Throughout this time Adams continued to serve as delegate to the Continental Congress. The Congress worked secretly behind closed doors, however, and there are few details about the role that Adams may have played after the Declaration of Independence was signed.

He did serve on several Congressional committees, held a position on the Board of War, and helped draft the Articles of Confederation before returning home to Massachusetts in When Hancock died in office, Adams assumed the governorship. Following that term, Adams was elected in his own right to three successive one-year terms as Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. He retired from politics after his tenure as Governor in
