Suspect there's a fair chance they'd be using Bullion or Brewer's Gold by that time? Which have a very different flavour to Fuggles.<br /><br />The thought occurs that at this time the UK hop suppply was being micro-managed by the Hops Marketing Board and I'd imagine that somewhere (National Archives? Wye?) there will be pretty good records of at least what individual brewers were using at a bulk level, which could be aligned with what's in the brew records. You might well find that eg a brewer only bought Goldings from Hereford and Fuggles from Kent, so if the brew records say Hereford then you know they mean Goldings.<br /><br />Both Fuggles and Goldings are a nightmare from the farming point of view, so from both a cost and security of supply aspect, there would have been pressure to move on to the new higher-alpha varieties.qqnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-80132253190135531012017-04-28T17:11:06.751-07:002017-04-28T17:11:06.751-07:00Make at least two pounds at a time.

It keeps indefinitely, and if you never brew more than one batch with it, you can always use the extra for pancakes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5445569787371915337.post-88775568480775936462017-04-26T11:40:29.079-07:002017-04-26T11:40:29.079-07:00Kevin,
