[Sca-cooks] Hildegrad's mention of hops in beer?

[Stefan li Rous]

the first such reference--is it possible that that's what your source is
referring to? >>>

Really? Or is this another of those rather loose translations?

If it is legit, could someone please post the comment or passage? Of  
course I imagine that it's still a translation, and I won't be able  
translate it, but perhaps some else can.

Thanks,
   Stefan
