Polymath Brewing

Polymath Brewing Polymath Brewing is nano brewery with a small tasting room located in Chino, CA specializing in West Coast IPA's and Belgian-Style beers. So what’s a Polymath?

A Polymath is a person with wide-ranging interests and knowledge. Basically a jack-of-all-trades, a Polymath can have interests in everything from art and science, food and culture, computers and cars, to sports and beer. Essentially a Polymath loves to learn! Some of our favorite Polymaths of the past include Tesla, Leonardo da Vinci and Ben Franklin. Our Philosophy
We at Polymath believe that we

are brewing on the shoulders of giants. We have been inspired by many brewers and breweries including Sierra Nevada, Russian River, and Fantome. While we respect beer styles we will never limit ourselves to traditional guidelines. We often brew outside the "glass" using the best ingredients that we can source. We love to play with different ingredients including different grains, spices and yeasts. Some of our favorite styles include the funky effervescent Farmhouse Saison and hoppy West Coast IPA’s. While some folks love to drink the same beer every time they visit a pub our goal is to have something new and as equally enjoyable as the last beer. We don’t want be a factory cranking out the same beer day in and day out. Because of this we will strive to always have the hoppiest IPA’s and the best Belgian-style beers available. Since hops don't hold up well in the bottle we will be pouring our hoppier beers on draft. And since we love what time does to Saisons in the bottle we will be offering special release bottle conditioned Saisons that will not be available on draft. About our Location
Polymath is located off the 91 fwy east of the 15 fwy. Our tasting room has 16 rotating taps offering plenty of variety for beer fans alike. We brew our beer on premise and encourage people to ask questions about beer and brewing. We love talking about beer almost as much as we love brewing and drinking it! Our Story
Jason and Steve became friends in junior high and through the love of Craft beer reconnected after several years. Steve spent several years working with the Chino City Council and is the Vice President of the Chino Youth Museum. Jason has been home brewing since 1999 and received his degree from Cal Poly Pomona in Behavioral Science with a minor in Entrepreneurship. His love for Craft beer landed him a job writing for Beer Magazine which introduced Steve and him to Brew Crew Inc. Thanks to Brew Crew Inc., we are able to brew the beers that we love and share them with the world.

Happy Birthday to the amazing POLYMATH Nikola Tesla. He was an accomplished inventor, discoverer, electrical engineer, mechanical engineer, theoretical and experimental physicist, mathematician, futurist and humanitarian. He’s been called a poet of science, modern Prometheus, creator of the 20th century and has been likened, in his polymath genius, to Leonardo da Vinci. Tesla was a hyperpolyglot who could speak eight languages fluently: Serbo-Croatian, English, Czech, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, and Latin. Tesla has more original inventions to his credit than any other man in history. He has accounted for 278 patients in 26 different countries.

He was the true father of radio and a man far ahead of his time. He is best known for his contributions to the design of the modern alternating current (AC) electricity supply system that we still use today. All electrical machinery using or generating alternating current is due to Tesla, without which our long distance trolley cars, our electrified power lines, and our subways would be impossible. He is also the father of remote control, building a wireless controlled boat exhibited in 1898.

The Tesla Induction Motor, the Tesla Rotary Converter, the Tesla Phase System of Power Transmission, the Tesla Steam and Gas Turbine, the Tesla Coil, and the Oscillation Transformer are perhaps his better-known inventions. In his labs, he conducted a range of experiments with mechanical oscillators/generators, electrical discharge tubes, and early X-ray imaging.

Although not recognized for, he was the first to discover the electron, radioactivity, cosmic rays, terrestrial resonance, stationary waves (standing waves), and the first to invent fluorescent light bulbs. He first demonstrated wireless energy/power by lighting his phosphorescent light bulbs wirelessly in a demonstration given before the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia,1893.

Tesla's legacy has endured in books, films, radio, TV, music, live theater, comics, and video games. The impact of the technologies invented or envisioned by Tesla is a recurring theme in several types of science fiction.

Happy Birthday to POLYMATH Maria Gaetana Agnesi who was an Italian mathematician, philosopher, theologian, and humanitarian. She was the first woman to write a mathematics handbook and the first woman appointed as a mathematics professor at a university.

Maria was recognized early on as a child prodigy; she could speak both Italian and French at five years of age. By her eleventh birthday, she had also learned Greek, Hebrew, Spanish, German, and Latin, and was referred to as the "Seven-Tongued Orator". She even educated her younger brothers. When she was nine years old, she composed and delivered an hour-long speech in Latin to some of the most distinguished intellectuals of the day. The subject was women's right to be educated.

She is best known for her curve, the witch of Agnesi, which appears in almost all high school and undergraduate math books. She was a child prodigy who frequented the salon circuit, discussing mathematics, philosophy, history, and music in multiple languages. She wrote one of the first vernacular textbooks on calculus and she was appointed by Pope Benedict XI to the chair of mathematics at the university in Bologna. In later years, however, she became a prominent figure within the Catholic Enlightenment, gave up academics, and devoted herself to the poor, the sick, the hungry, and the homeless. Indeed, the life of Maria Agnesi reveals a complex and enigmatic figure—one of the most fascinating characters in the history of mathematics. According to Britannica, she is "considered to be the first woman in the Western world to have achieved a reputation in mathematics."

She devoted the last four decades of her life to studying theology (especially patristics) and to charitable work and serving the poor. This extended to helping the sick by allowing them to enter her home where she set up a hospital. She was a devout Catholic and wrote extensively on the marriage between intellectual pursuit and mystical contemplation, most notably in her essay Il Cielo Mistico (The Mystic Heaven).

In honor of National Women's Day, a very special POLYMATH was Hildegard of Bingen. She was a German Benedictine abbess, artist, author, pharmacist, poet, writer, composer, philosopher, Christian mystic, preacher, and visionary during the High Middle Ages. She is one of the best-known composers of sacred monophony, as well as the most recorded in modern history. She has been considered by scholars to be the founder of scientific natural history in Germany. In recent years, Hildegard has become of particular interest to feminist scholars.

Hildegard's convent elected her as magistra (mother superior) in 1136. She founded the monasteries of Rupertsberg in 1150 and Eibingen in 1165. Hildegard wrote theological, botanical, and medicinal works, as well as letters, hymns, and antiphons for the liturgy. She wrote poems, and supervised miniature illuminations in the Rupertsberg manuscript of her first work, Scivias. There are more surviving chants by Hildegard than by any other composer from the entire Middle Ages, and she is one of the few known composers to have written both the music and the words. She is noted for the invention of a constructed language known as Lingua Ignota.

Attention in recent decades to women of the medieval Catholic Church has led to a great deal of popular interest in Hildegard's music. In addition to the Ordo Virtutum, sixty-nine musical compositions, each with its own original poetic text, survive, and at least four other texts are known, though their musical notation has been lost.

Although the history of her formal canonization is complicated, regional calendars of the Roman Catholic church have listed her as a saint for centuries. On 10 May 2012, Pope Benedict XVI extended the liturgical cult of Hildegard to the entire Catholic Church in a process known as "equivalent canonization". On 7 October 2012, he named her a Doctor of the Church, in recognition of "her holiness of life and the originality of her teaching.

Happy birthday to an influential 17th-century POLYMATH Gottfried Leibniz. He was a prominent German POLYMATH and philosopher in the history of mathematics and the history of philosophy. His most notable accomplishment was conceiving the grand ideas of differential and integral calculus independently and simultaneously with Isaac Newton's similar conceptions. Mathematical works have always favored Leibniz's notation as the conventional expression of calculus, while Newton's notation became unused.

He became one of the most prolific inventors in the field of mechanical calculators. While working on adding automatic multiplication and division to Pascal's calculator, he was the first to describe a pinwheel calculator in 1685 and invented the Leibniz wheel, used in the arithmometer, the first mass-produced mechanical calculator. He also refined the binary number system, which is the foundation of virtually all digital computers.

In philosophy, Leibniz is most noted for his optimism, i.e. his conclusion that our Universe is, in a restricted sense, the best possible one that God could have created, an idea that was often lampooned by others such as Voltaire. Leibniz, along with René Descartes and Baruch Spinoza, was one of the three great 17th-century advocates of rationalism. The work of Leibniz anticipated modern logic and analytic philosophy.

Leibniz made major contributions to physics and technology and anticipated notions that surfaced much later in philosophy, probability theory, biology, medicine, geology, psychology, linguistics, and computer science. He wrote works on philosophy, politics, law, ethics, theology, history, and philology. Leibniz also contributed to the field of library science. While serving as overseer of the Wolfenbüttel library in Germany, he devised a cataloging system that would serve as a guide for many of Europe's largest libraries. Leibniz's contributions to this vast array of subjects were scattered in various learned journals, in tens of thousands of letters, and in unpublished manuscripts. He wrote in several languages, but primarily in Latin, French, and German.

Happy Birthday to Pierre-Simon, marquis de Laplace was a French POLYMATH and scholar whose work was important to the development of engineering, mathematics, statistics, physics, astronomy, and philosophy. He summarized and extended the work of his predecessors in his five-volume Mécanique céleste (Celestial Mechanics) (1799–1825). This work translated the geometric study of classical mechanics to one based on calculus, opening up a broader range of problems. In statistics, the Bayesian interpretation of probability was developed mainly by Laplace.

Laplace formulated Laplace's equation, and pioneered the Laplace transform which appears in many branches of mathematical physics, a field that he took a leading role in forming. The Laplacian differential operator, widely used in mathematics, is also named after him. He restated and developed the nebular hypothesis of the origin of the Solar System and was one of the first scientists to postulate the existence of black holes and the notion of gravitational collapse.

Laplace is remembered as one of the greatest scientists of all time. Sometimes referred to as the French Newton or Newton of France, he has been described as possessing a phenomenal natural mathematical faculty superior to that of any of his contemporaries. He was Napoleon's examiner when Napoleon attended the École Militaire in Paris in 1784. Laplace became a count of the Empire in 1806 and was named a marquis in 1817, after the Bourbon Restoration.
