• Notes

  By profession William was a Maltster. The maltster selected cereals,mainly barley,from the growing fields, for malting. The barley could also be grown on a brewers premise. The maltster would then modify the barley, using nature as part of the process, to allow the brewmaster to be able to make beer from it. The barley was malted to the brewmasters specification, to ensure the brewmaster being able to produce the beer flavor, and alcohol content he desired.
