Old Speckled HenEnglish Fine Ale
5.2% alc/vol
It's been years since I last drank an Old Speckled Hen and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.
It has a rich golden colour with minimal head and minimal bubble. A lovely rich caramel on the nose, with a slight maltiness on the palate and a fine bead. A bit of herbal hopiness which makes this similar to Knappstein Lager with that full rich flavour but a nice crisp dry finish.
A classic beer named after an old MG, you'll have to buy a bottle or go to the website to get the full story.
