A CAMRA Learn & Discover video guide to foraging for brewing ingredients

by Andy Hamilton

Andy takes you on a virtual forage looking for ingredients used in brewing, prior to the arrival of hops to Britain – and which today’s brewers look to for inspiration. Each plant is presented with a profile and a brief brewing factsheet to point you in the direction of what stage in the brewing process to use, and decide which plant and other ingredients you might want to pair it with.
