Brew Masters Tasting Notes: This beer as a sweet malt character, well balanced with a pleasing bitter after palate!
Twice Hung
William Booth was born at Hall End Farm in Beaudesert in 1776.
Booth was accused of murdering his brother John while revisiting Hall End on 19 February 1808, but was acquitted for lack of evidence. After the Napoleonic Wars, Booth converted the top floor of his farmhouse into a fortified workshop where he produced forgeries of banknotes, coins, and other material of monetary value.
Once his activities came to light, he was arrested, charged and found guilty on all counts and sentenced to hang. Booth's public execution in 1812 was bungled, and he fell through the scaffold's trap door to the floor. Within two hours, he was hanged again and died. He is buried in St Mary Church in Handsworth, but following a change of county boundary, his body was disinterred and reburied.
He was ’Twice tried, twice hung, and twice buried’
Perkins Prescription
Coming Back - 17th October
Thomas Richard Perkins was the pharmacist in Henley from 1896 to 1945. He was actively involved in the town being a lay preacher at the Methodist Church and a trustee of the Henley Charities amongst other things.
He also had an avid interest in Railways and wrote numerous articles. In 1932 he completed the unique task of travelling over the whole railway system of the British Isles, some 22,000 miles.
"No one had done so before, with the curtailment of services under Beeching, no one will ever do so again."

Allsopps Pale Ale - The Victorian Era’s best selling Beer
The beer that built Allsopp’s – the Pale Ale was first brewed in 1730 above The Blue Stoops pub in Burton-on-Trent – by 1850 it was the biggest selling beer in the country.
Now the new Blue Stoops has launched in Kensington, London and the circle has been closed with Allsopp’s Pale on sale again throughout the Realm.
Pale gold and bright, with light bready, cereal, and citrus notes on the nose. On the palate, a perfect balance of juicy hops, moreish biscuit body, with a dry finish that will have you reaching for another sip before you know it.

Deya Brewery - Steady Rolling Man
Steady Rolling Man. Our pale ale. Inspired by the ridiculously tasty hoppy beers we fell for, we got brewing our own versions, over and over again, while listening to the blues greats.
The heady concoction of old-time blues records and juicy American hops transfixed us from the start and the Steady Rolling Man was born in these sessions! Incredibly soft and delicate with intense tropical fruit hop aromatics and saturation, this is our vision of the perfect pale ale.
