Hey guys,
Not really sure where this post belongs, as there is no historic section. I am looking to brew a beer for a rev war living history march. Every year I participate in a march from Abingdon, VA to Kings Mountain, NC. We follow the trail that the militia followed that helped turn the tide of the revolutionary war. The militia was made up of the ulster Scots. I was looking for a recipe that would represent what these men would have drank at the time. Does anyone have any ideas about this? I'm not sure whether this would have been an Irish Ale, or Scottish Ale.
Does anybody have any ideas on this.
BTW ... Shameless plug, the organization that performs this march/living history is the Overmountain Men Victory Trail Association (The OVTA Home Page) I apologize for the website .... I am a programmer by trade, but take no responsibility for the site.
I really appreciate an input on this.
