Pegasus Piper
A.B.V. 4.5%

Bill Millin. born July 1922. As personal piper to 15th Lord Lovatt he piped his fellow commandos onto Sword Beach at the D-Day Landings, as many of them fell around him.

Later that same day he piped the remainder across the heavily defended Pegasus Bridge, where more of them were to fall.

Afterwards, some captured German snipers told him that he had only been spared the same fate as his comrades because they thought he had gone mad.

Appropriately, after the war, Bill worked as a Psychiatric Nurse in Glasgow.


The hops in this beer are English Minstrel & French Bouclier.
