As some of you may be aware I have a strange obsession with old beers styles and trying to recreate historical styles.
My next idea is to try and create the style Mum. "This is a style originally from Germany but popular in Britain from 1660 to early 19th Century.".[1]
Does anyone know of any sources for this, any contemporary accounts or even some old recipes for this beer style. So, far I have a one line metion on wikipedia and a link from there shared here.

==== EDIT ====
Found a couple of other interesting links I need to properly investigate:
This one has a good historical look at the style: https://witteklavervier.nl/en/history/mum
This contains some guide to a recipe, I think given the bad translation and my terrible schoolboy German: http://www.kruenitz1.uni-trier.de/cgi-bin/getKRArticles.tcl?tid=005_15+opt=1-0
NB. I do not mind if the sources are in English, German or Dutch.
