Charity donations doubled through Hook Norton beer

Hook Norton’s Flagship brew will still be sold throughout November and charity donations from each pint will be doubled.
The beer originally returned to the bar for one month only in October, with 5p donated to the Help the Heores charity. The beer has proved so successful that the brewer has extended its sales period for another month, with the charitable donation increased to 10p per pint. Money raised goes to a charity which supports wounded service personnel.
“We will double our commitment to Help for Heroes and pay 10p per pint to the charity for every pint sold,” pledged md James Clarke.
The hoppy beer, which is thought to go well with a strong Cheddar cheese, was originally brewed in 2005 to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar.
