Description
The Beer Darbyste is a fermented drink made from figs, barley and unmalted wheat, sugar and egg white. The recipe would have been popularized by the Darbyst brothers, an “exclusive” stream of Brother Assemblies founded by John Nelson Darby at the origin of an Anglo-Protestant community in the Borinage.
According to legend, this beer was popularized by the darbysts in the Borinage to fight against alcoholism. Anyway, this beer has enjoyed great popularity in the Borinage during the second half of the xx th century, when the figs were cheap again.
