About
Peter Symons

Have you ever wanted to brew and appreciate legendary Australian ales, porters, stouts and lagers? Curious about how these beers might have tasted and what made them uniquely Australian? Well you have come to the right place - True Blue Brews, Bronzed Brews – Second Edition and 6 O’CLOCK Brews - Second Edition have numerous recipes for historic Australian beers, along with some English beers for comparison. Guile Brews covers selected traditional Cornish, Irish and English beers. Cornish beers from the St Austell Brewery and the Devenish - Redruth Brewery, along with beers from Irish and English regional breweries. Can You Help? I would like help from any of you who may have had relatives who worked in breweries and have any old brewing information. Items of interest would be details of materials used, amounts and types of malt, sugars, hops, plus the process details of each brew, i.e. the information needed to recreate a beer. Please get in touch. Cheers About the Author Peter has an ongoing passion, perhaps bordering on obsession, with discovering and recreating historic beers. He is a member of the Beer Culture Center League of Historians and has presented ‘Beer in the Land Down Under and ‘Don't Be Afraid of the Dark: A History of Australian Stout’ both of which are available on the Beer Culture Center YouTube Channel.
