Following the recent chat about getting Speclkled hen stateside, i got in touch with Greene King (who now run Morlands), Although they have no immediate plans for a trans atlantic pipeline they were able to provide this source of info:-

Cheers , I wont feel so guilty suppin my brew now

Wow we are exporting culture around the Globe! Superb.

This is a bit off topic; but have you tried brewing your own? I've been thinking of giving beer, wine and cider a go. Separately of course.

rgr. Some years ago now, I put half a Bramley Apple in the barrel and the result was pretty close to Abbott by taste and strength.

I think I'm going to give it ago! If it's too strong I can always sell it as aviation fuel. Just been on a few home-brew sites and feel even more inspired - My garage is about to become 'The Woodland Brewing Vaults'!

Any names for the highly 'leafy' woodland ale would be great!

mmm...memories........

Bridge House...

...now it's wait and see.

Greene King run the brewery that produces Abbot and Speckled Hen????

The rest of the beer they prdouce is dishwater!!!!!

I hope they don't start srewing with the contents!!!!

Morland was a brewery in Abingdon in the English county of Oxfordshire (formerly Berkshire). They first brewed in West Ilsley in 1711. It was purchased and closed by Greene King in 2000; and production of the Morland beers was moved to their brewery in Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk.

Seems the Speckled Hen you supped at Duxford was Brewed at Bury St Edmunds
