Jeremy Clarkson holds a pint of golden Hawkstone lager beside farm machinery beneath a cloudy evening sky

It’s here. And it is F***ing good

Jeremy Clarkson is supporting British Farmers & British Pubs! What's not to like. His beers and Kaleb's cider are superb and they're on draught at the Old Exeter Inn right now!

The lager that Jeremy Clarkson makes is called Hawkstone. And it’s good. Very good. It’s made from barley grown on his own farm, Diddly Squat, in the Cotswolds! The good news is Hawkstone Premium Lager is on at the Old Exeter Inn and we love it. And we think you will too. It makes Carlsberg taste like Danish cows p*ss, which of course it is.

In his own unique way, Jeremy is helping to support British Farmers and British Pubs. He’s got our support. BUY BRITISH.

Some very funny Hawkstone ads to enjoy!
