Evidence shows that the Anglo Saxons drank ale and lots of it too! In this video, I attempt to brew a batch of AngloSaxonstyle ale. I take you through the whole process, from gathering the ingredients needed to the final tasting down in the Mead Hall.
Back in early medieval times, when the water could not always be trusted, everyone in early medieval society would have drunk ale on a daily basis. I was inspired to try this process after seeing an episode of Digging for Britain, where they were excavating an AngloSaxon malting complex in North Norfolk. Ales in those days did not use hops but were flavoured with plants such as elderflowers and bog myrtle and so I waited until the correct time of year to gather these plants. The result was the most heavenly Anglo Saxon Ale or Ealu you can imagine!
So, raise your drinking horn, and join me on this journey.

Please like and subscribe. It is very much appreciated. I am not a historian and everything I bring you is from my own solo studies and my own experiences. It is a passion of mine and I am happy to be sharing the wonderful world of the Pagan AngloSaxons with you. I am on a onewoman mission to show that the world of the Pagan AngloSaxons was every bit as rich, interesting, and spiritual as the world of the Norse Vikings which tends to get all of the focus these days. I would also like to say, that I am but a student of the Old English language and it is a lifetime's pursuit.
