While the partridge in a pear tree on the label suggests Christmas, this Hook Norton brew is available all year round and is a wonderfully rich and dark strong ale that will warm any cold soul. With a dark malt palate with nutty overtones, Twelve Days finishes with a hint of sweetness that compliments the bolt rich flavours perfectly.

Hook Norton is one of the few remaining family owned English Pubs and Breweries in existence in the UK. They produce ales of true distinction and flavour just like this fruity and full-bodied ale, Old Hooky. Wonderfully balanced and rich in texture, Old Hooky has plenty of aromatic fruit-driven notes and a palate covering smooth finish.

Hook Norton is one of only 32 family owned breweries in the United Kingdom today and has a rich heritage that began in the Cotswold's back in 1849. Today the brewery embraces a thoroughly modern approach with traditional values which can be seen in beers like this Haymaker Pale Ale. Plenty of Golding hops are used to produce a strong ale of richness and smoothness and incredible length.

Kendall-Jackson from the Sonoma County, just north of San Francisco, make a delicious Pinot Noir that has iIntense strawberry/black cherry/smoky/herb garden aromas and flavours with soft fleshy textures and underlying savoury/toasty oak.

Sustainably farmed Estate vineyards provide top quality fruit for this premium Californian red. Rich and peppery with hints of juicy raspberry this is the perfect match to succulent roast beef.
