A limited edition ale will be launched on Good Friday (21st April) to mark the beginning of this year’s exceptional “double bank holiday season” and commemorating the Royal Wedding on April 29th. Entitled “Hornblower” the beer is light coloured with a hoppy, citrusy over tone and a hint of blackberry coming in at 4% abv. “We always name our beers with a gun, cannon or nautical theme so Hornblower, apart from its nautical connotations, seemed to have a nice celebratory ring to it” said Old Cannon’s brewer Chris Waters.
Community groups and street party organisers will be able to order 18 pint or 36 pt boxes or 72 pint firkins of the beer for their own Royal Wedding celebrations.
