Hooky Gold with a new green label
Andy over at Beerreviews.co.uk just posted the first review of the test #beerswap parcel that we exchanged a little while back. In it I packed four fine Oxfordshire (ish) ales including the fantastic Hooky Gold from Hook Norton Brewery.
I didn’t think anything of the Hooky Gold at the time, even admiring it’s shiny green label.
Until last night, when Alan popped over and we were chatting about the blog. We looked over at the original Hooky bottles that used to make up this our blog header, and noticed something odd – there was no Hooky Gold.
But of course there is! Hooky Gold was always in a red label with gold writing. Now the label is green!
When did this occur? How did we not notice?! We don’t mind Hooky, we like the green label, but when and why was it changed?!?!
Does anybody know?
