Hurricane Best Bitter 4.3% ABV. 500ml Box of 12 Bottles Free P&P

HURRICANE BEST BITTER IS OUR COMMEMORATION OF LOCH EWE'S RELATIONSHIP WITH THE HAWKER HURRICANE AIRCRAFT. THE ARCTIC CONVOYS SOMETIMES INCLUDED CATAPULT AIRCRAFT MERCHANT SHIPS (CAMS). THESE HAD A RAMP OVER THE BOW ON WHICH A HURRICANE WAS MOUNTED AND LAUNCHED BY A ROCKET-PROPELLED CATAPULT TO INTERCEPT ENEMY AIRCRAFT. A ONE-WAY TICKET FOR THE PILOT AS THERE WAS NO MEANS OF LANDING: HE WOULD HAVE TO BAIL OR DITCH IN THE ARCTIC SEA AND AWAIT RECOVERY BY THE CONVOY VESSELS.Hopped with Columbus, Endeavour and Goldings.
