That said, it's not without charm, but those clear bottles HAVE to go. dirty skunky aromas are not cool. It can taste quite fruity, with a cigar-like tobacco note if you can find it fresh served in a keg in NZ. I've seen it at the Londoner in Hamilton, and at Jolly Good Fellows in Taupo. Not the best England has to offer by any means, but not an awful drop.Greig McGillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08159929906208157846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11906042.post-89415384407783229672008-02-15T22:53:00.000+13:002008-02-15T22:53:00.000+13:00PC : I came across a beer that you might be intere...PC : I came across a beer that you might be interested in (in my local Pak'n'Save of all places). Called Old Speckled Hen, apparently named after an MG<BR/><BR/>Quote : Old Speckled Hen was first brewed by Morlands of Abingdon in 1979. MG cars celebrated the 50th anniversary of their move to Abingdon, from Edmund Road in Cowley. They asked Morland to brew a special commemorative beer for the occasion, for which they would suggest the name and they would design the bottle label. The name chosen was Old Speckled Hen which took its name from a car which was brought to Abingdon, when the factory moved.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, it's a tasty drop. Wonder if you'd seen it?
