Description
Brewed in the heart of Sussex, East Hoathly
So why The 1648 Brewing Company? The answer is on the decree in the Houses of Parliament, with Oliver Cromwell’s signature on it to remove the King’s Head. The beer is brewed in the Old Stables and village forge just next to the Kings Head Pub where three Ales are always available from the brewery .

Almost clear amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth and semi dry palate. Mild fine carbonation. Smooth light malts. Dry floralness, touch of elderflower. Whispers of esters and dried fruits. Light semi dry finish. Not bad.

Tried at Nottingham Beer Festival 2014. This was 5.5%. Black with tan head. Roasted malts, chocolate, oats and a sweetish finish. Overall a good beer.

Bottle thanks to allmyvinyl. Appearance - golden with a proportionate head which then fades quickly. A slight haze. Nose - honey and cornflakes. Taste - strangely drying and green even though it’s a honey beer. Palate - medium bodied with a creamy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - don’t like honey beers and thus isn’t a good example.
