FULL, MELLOW, SMOOTH.
Modern recreation of a medieval recipe to give a glimpse into the kind of beers around in the Bard’s time. Hops were starting to be increasingly used by brewers during Shakespeare’s time (the first plantings in England were some forty years before his birth), but used sparingly, as in this recipe.
One of three beers first brewed for the Bristol Shakespeare Festival 5-21 July 2013.
What’s in it?
Maris Otter, Smoked, Rye, Brown, Oat malts from Warminster Maltings.
Challenger (UK) whole hops from Charles Faram of Malvern.
