This beer takes its name not from a bird but a car, the much-loved, paint-spattered MG factory run-around known as the 'Owld Speckl'd Un'. Our Master Brewer uses crystal and pale malts and a blend of Challenger, Pilgrim, First Gold and Goldings hops to deliver a beautifully malty ale with subtle notes of toffee and fruit. Especially fine with English roasts, sausages and pies.
Aroma: Malty, toffee, lightly roasted Taste: Abundance of malts and distinctive toffee character
Old Speckled hen owes its name not to a bird, but to a car: A paint-spattered featherweight fabric saloon, the MG factory runaround, fondly referred to as the 'Owld Speckl'd Un' thanks to its mottled appearance. Our famous beer, with its distinctive and delicious toffee-malt character, was first brewed in 1979 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the iconic mg factory.
