EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in 1889, offers a glimpse into the bustling world of the Anglo-Bavarian Brewery in Shepton Mallet, England. The growing floor of the brewery, filled with barrels and vats, showcases the industrious nature of the 19th-century brewing process. The Anglo-Bavarian Brewery was a pioneer in the English brewing industry, blending traditional English brewing techniques with the innovative methods brought over from Bavaria. The photograph captures the essence of the brewery's historical significance, as the industry was undergoing a period of rapid growth and modernization. The Anglo-Bavarian Brewery was at the forefront of this transformation, using the latest technology to increase production and improve the quality of their beer. The image reveals the intricacies of the brewing process, with malted barley being transported from the malting floor to the mash tun, where it would be mixed with hot water to create a thick porridge-like consistency known as mash. This mash would then be drained, leaving behind a sweet liquid called wort, which would be boiled with hops to create the distinctive flavor of the beer. The barrels in the foreground of the photograph are filled with fermenting beer, with the yeast converting the sugars in the wort into alcohol. The barrels would be left to age for several weeks or even months, allowing the beer to develop its unique character and flavor. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of the Anglo-Bavarian Brewery and the broader brewing industry in England during the late 19th century. It offers a fascinating glimpse into a bygone era, when the production of beer was a labor-intensive and intricate process that required a deep understanding of both science and tradition.
