Old Speckled Hen is very well thought of in the UK - I don't drink much
nowadays but when I was younger and wilder it was a great favourite of mine.
There's also a brew called Spitfire by Shepeard Neams brewery which is highly
though of, though it's never been to my own taste. Unfortunately, Spitfire is
named after the aeroplane rather than the car, so it's more a case of common
ancestry than direct descendence :-)
Cheers,
Bill.
