FREDERICK BAILEY Ltd : BEERS 1888 - 1889

 How Do All ,

This blog post and following recipes are possible due to the interest and generosity of ,
Greene King Ltd ; Who kindly supported my research by sponsoring the reprographics costs involved with my first foray into the beery history of Cambridgeshie ; and to the excellent team at Cambridgeshire Archives . Thanks for the help folks , Greatly Appreciated .
The beers analysed to date , come from an Un Catalogued collection deposited with the folks at Cambridgeshire Archives which mostly consists of Business Admin Ledgers for the Star Brewery during the period it was owned and operated by Frederick Bailey , and one solitary Brewing Record in the form of : " The Private Brewing Book of H H Tebbutt 1881 - 1889 " which covers sporadic brewings at the Star Brewery and with other information such as Liquor profiles for the
 Star , Hope , Victoria and Sawston plants .
The book  is indeed a personal record book as opposed to a company`s own records of production .
Annoyingly the other beers produced by Frederick Bailey`s breweries are only tangentally refferred to in the records ; in an annoying instance the solitary Stout brewing record in the Entire volume lists the Grist Weights without other details !!!.
 
I hope that you all enjoy the tables , and the recipies that`ll be following 🍻
