Shut up about Barclay Perkins - Heineken (Rotterdam) hops in 1942
Visit the Shut up about Barclay Perkins site
I almost forgot this one. The last little snippet about Heineken's beers in WW II. It's pretty short and shouldn't take up too much of your time. This should be it for a while. At least until they get those other records from the pilot brewery digitised. Then the whole sorry exercise will kick off again.
The hops employed, as far as I can tell, were all German. Which makes a lot of sense. Germany had a large area dedicated to hops. And Heineken was hardly likely to buy hops from the USA.
The hops were starting to get older, all being from the 1940 harvest. As they had been in 1941. The vast majority were a single type of Hallertau. Most of the beers containing no other type. The one exception being the stronger version of Pils, which had three in total.
