Hook Norton celebrates autumn with Copper Ale

Hook Norton welcomes the autumn with its latest seasonal brew Copper Ale which will be on sale in many of its tenanted and free trade pubs. Copper Ale, at 4.8 per cent ABV, is a premium, dark red ale with a strong, dry and slightly spicy palate and aftertaste. It contains Maris Otter pale ale, aromatic, amber and enzymic malts together with a marvelous mix of Fuggles, Goldings and Challenger hops.

Hook Norton Managing Director James Clarke said: “Hook Norton’s Copper Ale is based on a recipe we used to create Celebration Ale which was brewed to commemorate the brewery’s 150 anniversary in 1999. “Hook Norton Copper Ale, at 4.8 per cent is a strong, dry and slightly spicy beer. “We first produced the Copper Ale in 2001 and the last time drinkers were able to enjoy it was in 2004.”
