Although in continental Europe hops were being used in beer by 1000 AD they had not made it to the UK yet. British brewers (mostly monks) relied on the local herbs to achieve similar effects. Bog myrtle was a common choice for adding bitterness and lemon balm &elderberries were fragrant enough to addsome pleasant flavours and aromas.
