      Old Speckled Hen of those you tried. You should try Proper Job and Abbot Ale, you could also give a porter a try, there are a few of them, Shepard and Neame do one.

Finally go to the town centre and have a refreshing nap in a shop doorway. Enjoy.

    Morland Brewery orignally created Old Speckled Hen, one of their most popular beers and it was brewed in Abingdon, Oxfordshire, the same place where the MG cars were made, hence why the hexaginal badge logo of the Speckled Hen range mirrors that of the MG car badge.
    In 2000 Greene King bought Morland's Brewery and transfered the Old Speckled Hen brands to its own brewery in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

      Advertising rubbish. All water is Burtonised to get to a standard base. Chemically treated usually with sulphuric acid to reduce calcium content and alkalinity. Different flavours due to yeast, hops and the way barley is malted. The advertising bull on the label are great works of fiction.

    Hey, if you want a holiday break at the seaside, I would suggest Mumbles in South Wales. While you are there, pop in to the Pilot which is a real-ale pub at the end of the Mumbles mile. Unusually, the Pilot sets the same price for most of its drinks and this used to be £3 a pint. You would be interested to know they also sell at least 7 bottled ciders ranging up to 7.4% alcohol - still all the same price. Enjoy !!!

    You drank 7 of the easiest to find beers in british supermarkets.....I really like British real ale and the only one I would consider drinking is the London Pride. You need to check out some of the vast array of golden ales....JHB, Citra, Proper Job, Summer Lightning, something from Badger Ales and if you are lucky enough to find it one of the Tring brewery range....there are many more though.

  • @PEZ1985
    @PEZ1985 3 роки тому

    Kentish lad here.. my top 5..
    CURIOUS BREW, it's a larger, very crisp because they add champagne yeast into the mix. (from tenterden and there's now a brewery in Ashford)
    CRANBOURNE POACHER, by badger, very nice with a liquorice taste.
    BLANFORD FLY, another badger beer with ginger hint to it.
    SPITFIRE GOLD, lager version of spitfire, nice and refreshing.
    WHITSTABLE BLOND, Again a lager but proper nice.

    Doom bar is a session ale so pretty easy to drink. More of a golden ale myself ! Try some rattler cider if you see it from Cornwall.

    • @AlisonBryen

      Cornish Rattler is my favourite cider ever. Each year when we go to St Ives on holiday we always stop off at Healy's Cyder Farm near Perranporth to stock up on crates of Rattler, Pear Rattler and Cornish Gold.
      Beer wise Skinners (Truro) is my favourite Cornish brewery. They produce Betty Stogs, Cornish Knocker and Lushingtons. We went for a brewery tour at Skinners in Truro a couple of years back and got absolutely trashed. We were allowed loads of full pints as part of the tour.
