michaelsbagley Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Was shopping for household stuff today, and saw a display of some of the Unibroue beers and ales at the market, so I instantly decided that I would buy some to enjoy. While sorting through the selection, I saw one I had not seen before.. The "Noire De Chambly". Awesome stuff. I would highly recommend trying it if you ever get the chance. Be warned it is more of a tasting beer than a drinking beer (as in one is really enjoyable, but drinking a few to many would likely make a good thing bad).

Zingara Carmella Posted January 14, 2011 Posted January 14, 2011 Zingara - Sounds yummy, any different from Spanish coffee????? Jas. Hook I don't know never had spanish coffee but the brasilan coffee is 100% coffee bean ( you would be surprised with amount of fillers they put in folgers and similar brands) dark roasted, and very fine grounded like baby powder, is more like turkish coffee or italian expresso.

I'd try heavier beers or ales Bass or Smithwicks For warmer weather try a cold cider. Most beers are better had from a glass or a stoneware mug or a pewter tankard. Jas.

So what kind of beer does??? Or: what beer of today resembles the moost of what they drank back then?? cheers! Wow, memories are odd things. Mine just provided me with the information that sometime back when rocks were soft, someone told me that with metal mugs (and this might be for modern "pewter" rather than tin), that you should "season" the mug with whatever you plan to drink from it, basically sacrificing a beer to the mug if beer be your beverage, letting it go flat and then dumping it out. Don't wash it, just rinse it out, and don't drink anything else from it. Seems like a lot of trouble to go to, but worth trying. As for beers that resemble the most of what they drank back then, it was probably small beer more than anything else, made from the 3rd brewing of a batch of hops, etc., which is why they could drink so much beer all the time. They wasn't much alcohol by the time you get to the 3rd batch. So the idea that folks were drinking a lot of beer and being drunk all the time is really one of those myths. I seem to remember porters were common, too. Someone is bound to have done a survey of this type of thing based on tavern inventories. I'll see what I can find out. Too bad you're so far away, you could join us for the symposium coming up in April. It's all about period brew.
