HOW TO BREW BEER
Beer has been the national drink of Britain for millennia (before it existed as the UK). Heather ale is most likely to have been the first beer consumed on these shores. It was brewed in Scotland from at least 2,000 BCE by a pugnacious warrior tribe known as the Picts. Over centuries waves of invaders – Angles, Saxons, Jutes and Vikings – brought the habit of drinking their favourite libation with them which served to reinforce native Britons’ already long held veneration for beer.
