“THE SECRETS OF GOOD BREWING, THE FOLLY OF STINGINESS”: ADAM BEDE'S CARNIVAL
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 09 March 2006
Abstract
… the arrival of the ale made an agreeable diversion; for Adam had to give his opinion of the new tap, which could not be otherwise than complimentary to Mrs Poyser; and then followed a discussion on the secrets of good brewing, the folly of stinginess in ‘hopping,’ and the doubtful economy of a farmer's making his own malt. Mrs Poyser had so many opportunities of expressing herself with weight on these subjects, that by the time supper was ended, the ale mug refilled, and Mr Poyser's pipe alight, she was once more in high good-humour, and ready, at Adam's request, to fetch the broken spinning-wheel for his inspection.
—George Eliot, Adam Bede
