The common population drank pulque and mezcal. Beer until the very end of the 19th century was mostly a niche product in Mexico, and more for expats and rich European immigrants. There were some German, Austrian and Swiss brewers that migrated to Mexico, but none of them brewed any lager beer styles. If beer history, home-brewing and Vienna Lager is the kind of stuff that interests you, then this book is for you! You can find more information about it on. While you keep reading the same stories and narratives about the creation of Vienna Lager and how survived to modern times, I found during my research that the history is much more complex, nuanced and interesting, while I found other supposed claims about the style (like it surviving thanks to Austrian and German brewers who had emigrated to Mexico) to be entirely untrue. While original brewing records of the original Vienna Lager don't exist anymore, I've nevertheless been able to reconstruct the ingredients and brewing methods (malting, mashing, boiling, fermentation) used to brew this beer style in the second half of the 19th century based on a multitude of historic sources from that time period.Īnother intention of writing this book was also to dispel all the myths around the style. I've researched the history of the beer style from its beginning in the late 1830s up to the 21st century, and how the beer style survived when it had fallen out of fashion in its country of origin, Austria. Over the last 1.5 years, I've been working on a book about a topic I've been very much interested for several years, Vienna Lager.
