Long before the introduction of beer purity laws, beer was often seasoned with a mixture of aromatic and partly intoxicating herbs. The so-called gruit beer contained bog myrte leaves as a main spice ingredient, as well as additional herbs like mugwort or wild hops. It was not until the 13th century that beer purely made from hops and malt starting spreadind all across Europe.

This seed kit contains 3 herb varieties for brewing beer:

Hops (Humulus lupulus)
Lush, vigorous, perennial climbing plant whose resinous-scented cones are used worldwide for brewing beer.
Bog Myrtle (Myrica gale)
An endangered bog bed plant whose bark and leaves are heavily covered with glands that produce a very spicy, earthy essential oil. Because of this special aroma, the dried leaves were used as a spice for food and beer in the Middle Ages.
Mugwort / Common wormwood (Artemisia vulgaris)
Possibly one of the most important European incense plants, but also a traditional spice for brewing beer and meat dishes.

The seeds of each variety are packaged in a separate sachet.

The seed sachets and detailed growing instructions in German and English are packed in a beautiful gift box - a great, sustainable gift for the garden. Any plant lover will be pleased.
