Besse Trilogy - Infinite Opera

This trilogy, the first ever opera about beer, tells the story of a medieval brewster living in 1348 AD on the cusp of social change.

Besse is in love with beer and the independence it affords her as she follows in the footsteps of the brewsters and goddesses spanning 5000 years before her. If she does not act fast the power of beer will be taken from her. Against the backdrop of the Black Death and tortured by accusations of witchcraft she navigates through the dangerous world that surrounds her to practice the art of fermentation to its greatest heights.

“Come and enjoy beer made into music – sometimes merrily crispy, sometimes soured with the frozen cold dagger of drama, and sometimes bitterly sweet. These are definitely two hours of refreshingly hoppy music for all.”

– Michael Pegher: “There’s not an opera house in the world that’s offering you beer and pizza!”
