PILOT BREWERY

Tapping the AdmiralSEASONAL ALE FOR OCTOBER

When Nelson was killed at Trafalgar his body was preserved in a cask of Brandy during the long trip back to England. Legend has it that thirsty sailors snuck drinks from the brandy cask carrying Nelson's corpse. This gave rise to the phrase for illicit drinking "Tapping the Admiral"

Available throughout October

Tasting Notes: Full in flavour, and light in colour this special beer is characterised by the addition of brandy essence to the brew. Delicious brandy, vanilla aromas compliment the lighter bittered beer.

4.5%
Containers
