A couple of Hens

Busy day today but managed to find time to unwind with a couple of beers whilst taking today's Blip.

A little story behind how 'Old Speckled Hen' got its name according to the Morland Brewery:

"Old Speckled Hen" was first brewed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the MG car factory in Abingdon, Oxfordshire. Named after an old MG car which was used as the factory run around, they would park the old MG Featherweight Fabric Saloon outside the paint shop where it would normally get spattered in paint and so it became known as the 'Owld Speckl'd Un'. This turned into "Old Speckled Hen" when the beer was unveiled.
