EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1970s by Andrew Beyley for Mary Evans Picture Library, showcases a moment in the rich and time-honored tradition of brewing in Cornwall, England. The image features a handful of fresh hops, carefully selected from a sack, their vibrant green color and delicate petals a testament to the natural beauty and organic essence of this essential brewing ingredient. The hops, a key component in the flavoring and preservation of beer, were once grown extensively in Cornwall, making the county a significant player in the brewing industry. The artisanal process of hop farming and brewing has deep roots in Cornish history, with records dating back to the 13th century. The hands in the photograph, weathered and calloused from years of work, hold the precious hops with a sense of reverence and care, reflecting the deep connection between the people of Cornwall and their land. The scene is a poignant reminder of a time when the brewing trade was a labor-intensive, hands-on endeavor, and the natural world played a central role in the production of this beloved beverage. Despite the passage of time and the modernization of the brewing industry, the essence of this traditional practice remains alive in Cornwall, with many microbreweries continuing to embrace the organic and natural methods of the past. This photograph serves as a beautiful tribute to the rich history and enduring legacy of brewing in Cornwall.
