"Food and Feast in Tudor England"

Hi! Today, I'm going to write about Beer and Brewing.

In Tudor times, ale, beer were common drink for ordinary people. Water was very limited and it was not good to drink in respect of hygienic reason so they change it into brewing. Milk was drunk but it was precious resource, it was material of making cheese and butter so if they drunk, they id only a part of whey. Fruit juice existed, but not really on option for the Tudors because it was luxury and it could not be preserved so long time, if they wanted, they made cider or perry with fruits. Tea, coffee and chocolate wasn't there until 17c so they couldn't avoid drinking ale and beer.

England has a long history of beer and brewing!

  2. Fortunately, some beers have quite high nutritional content. So, they didn't just have the advantage that they were more hygienic than water. Stout, for example, can contain Vitamin B12, soluble fiber, and antioxidants.

  3. I envy ordinary people in Tudor times for being able to drink beer commonly. If I was in Tudor times, I enjoy spending daily life to drink beer every day.
