I imagine that is a local brew and not exported?

If this is the beer then then it certainly hasn't been the only thing he has ordered. The brewery has only existed since 1995. Unless they took the name of a beer from an earlier time.

Website suggests it is limited to central England.

Could it be a cynical advertising ploy? I bet the codger is only 92.

Nah, he just looks 92. It's definitely the beer!
