Old Speckled Hen is popular with ale drinkers up and down the country and renowned for its unique character and consistent quality.

A high proportion of Crystal malt in Old Speckled Hen provides the key toffee/ caramel flavour. The yeast used to ferment the beer provides the other key character - estery or banana/pear drop. This estery note provides the fruity and refreshing balance. The hops used add a palate cleansing herbal note and very slight orange citrus. A very malty, full bodied and warming ale.
