Tomorrow, Monday June 15th at 12.15pm, a nationwide communal "cheers" to
beer has been planned, when beer lovers will be encouraged to go to the pub, or open a bottle of beer in the
park or at home, and raise a glass to celebrate British beer (see website). 12.15pm relates to the year
that Magna Carta was sealed, that is, 800 years ago to the day, and Beer Day will be held on the 15th June every year from now on...
Clause 35 of Magna Carta states "Let there be throughout our kingdom a single
measure for wine and a single measure for ale and a single measure for corn, namely 'the London quarter'."
Please feel free to join in, and cheers!
