Blaydon Brick” was the “nick-name” for the popular cloth capped 19th century MP for Newcastle, Joseph Cowen Jnr. A son of Blaydon; he was a friend to Garibaldi, Mazzini, the working man, and anyone at that time whose rights were suppressed!

Pigs Ear. Cask. Hazy gold beer. Small bubbly pale cream coloured head. Palate is light and dry. Dry pale malt. Mild dried fruits and a light touch of hard candy fruits. Some marmalade bitterness provides balance. Dry finish. Decent.
