Colonial Brewing

[ChasidicCalvinist]

I don't actually brew anymore, but when I was really into it I used to argue with my friends who didn't brew gluten free that they needed to expand their understanding of beer beyond the reinheitsgebot. Not sure if anyone here ever watches the Youtube Channel Townsends but I recently saw one where they made ginger beer based upon a 1700's recipe. It, as most of the colonial American beers was totally gluten free. Feel free to watch it below.

Very interesting video, thanks for sharing it.

Also, Happy 500th Anniversary of the Reformation, Calvinist!

OP, what are you brewing these days? That is a nice video. I should try one. I won't use clay jugs though.
Cheers

Brewed a lot of those, I recommend pet bottles as you can easily check the carbonation level by squeezing the bottle. And if **** still hits the fan, a bursting bottle just causes some spillage.
