    Greene King have brewed and Boxed bottle conditioned 7.00 % abv Hen, which to my more cynical side says just a slightly stronger Hen’s Tooth with prettier packaging.

    Robinson’s/Iron Maiden also going with bigger bottle and packaging but a 10% abv impy, which I’ve picked one up.

    Anyone had these or plan to?

    Master Hen is sold out on the Greene King website.

    At least the box will stop it getting lightstruck in those mad flint glass bottles they insist on using.

    Now that Strong Suffolk is seemingly no more at least there is still a beer available that contains a bit of Old 5X.

    Greene King confirmed with me that Hen’s Tooth is no longer in production
