A premium ale to commemorate the year 1965 when the Black Eagle Brewery closed. Brewed to a similar recipe that Bill Wickett used for his last brew at the old brewery on 3rd March 1965. Kent Northdown hops give a clean, refreshing full bodied flavour for which English ales are famous. Finished with Finchcocks’ Kent Goldings for flavour and aroma.

Cask conditioned gravity dispense at Merton Winter Beer Festival 16-02-07. Fairly standard brown in appearance with a nice malty nose. I was quite impressed by this beer which had a lovely fruity chewiness to it and which lingered long in the mouth, it tasted a little weaker than it was but aside from that I felt that it was a nice malty, fruity good quality bitter.

Cask (gravity dispense), White Cliffs Beer Festival, February 2005 Not had that many Westerham beers before but I liked the malty fruit on this one. It wasn’t overly agressive but that enabled this to slip down quite easily
