It's fascinating how the styles have evolved over the years due to wars taxes etc. and each generation evolves with whatever the brewers throw at them within those confines. As for these mild records, it seems that the quality was not that great, are we in a renaissance of cask beer now, are beers kept really well or are their always landlords who will give you any old swill. I recently visited the Melbourne Bros. Brewery in Stamford and was fascinated by their steam engine equipped brewery used by Sam Smiths for their fruit beers. Do you have any info on steam used in brewing or a historical recipe from them. Thanks, for the great book and insight to the past, fabulous! P.s keep the profanity and debunking of the brewing myths. porchfiddlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11450777464660614698noreply@blogger.com
