There isn’t a huge amount of well-sourced material available for anyone wanting to read about ale-making in the medieval period. Well, not texts directly from medieval manuscripts, and not in translation.
So I’ve added my own contribution to all things ale. You can now read on my website my newly revised translation of the brewers section, taken from Rochester Priory’s thirteenth-century custumal.
There is a commentary section, too, to give some guidance.
I’m always very happy to receive any questions on any of my postings, so please feel free to comment below on this page.
