At any given time the sun is over the yardarm in some part of the world, but for brewers it’s never too early to have a drink. These hearty souls not only make the beloved liquid, some include it in their breakfast.
Here’s a little recipe for a brewer’s breakfast. It’s not quite hair of the dog, more of a lining for the kennel.
THE BREWER’S BREAKFAST
one bowl of toasted muesli
one cup of hot wort straight from the mash (unhopped)
half a cup of fruit
one cup of yoghurt
Pour into schooner glass, hold nose and drink in one swill.
