Historical brewing and the preHistorisch Dorp; part 2

In July 2021 Monique, Frank and I experimented with medieval brewery in our beloved museum preHistorisch Dorp Eindhoven.

Based on our earlier research we decided to use hot stones this time.

I’ve been to Düsseldorf several times and no doubt I will visit the city again in the future. It’s one of my most favorite beer cities!
