You Can Never Be Too InSpired

29 May 2009

Following its tremendous success in 2007, ‘Inspired’ – the beer brewed by Hook Norton Brewery to celebrate the Oxfordshire Millennium – is back this summer by popular demand.

Hook Norton Brewery has been producing quality real ales for over 150 years and Inspired was the first brew they created that used totally local raw materials. Again this year the hops are from Kingston Bagpuize and the water is from the wells under the Brewery, giving the beer a real local essence. Inspired at 4.5% is a premium pale beer with a slight orange hue. There are aromas of soft dark fruit, a full and almost spicy flavour, with a pleasant lingering after taste. All in all, it’s a very quaffable ale.

James Clarke, Managing Director at Hook Norton Brewery said: “Following the success of Inspired in 2007, we are delighted it’s returning in our seasonal ale programme in 2009.”

Look out for Inspired on draft at Hook Norton pubs across the county from June, the ideal time to re-launch this summer brew.
