Hogan Sampling		13 Dec 2025	Very good head and lacing and lasting on this local brew of an English pale ale from down the road in Westerham where Robert Wickes in 2004 set up Westerham Brewery and so brining back a brewing history from early 1600s and with The Black Eagle Brewery established there in 1841. We were sitting around a fantastic real log fire in the main bar area but the beer was just slightly too chilled. Putting our hands close to the fire and then cupping our hands around our glasses soon remedied that. A good hoppy first bite. A gentle bitterness rising. A fruity hoppiness veering up and a pleasant hoppy bitter note tap dancing on my palate. A dry fruited jingle, jangle out and not tasting at all medicinal despite this house beer's name.
