David Spencer, Head of Marketing for the Old Speckled Hen family, said: “It’s great to have Old Spooky Hen making a return to the bar this year, which drives excitement around a fun annual occasion. To continue to build on the activity and encourage guests to visit the pub, we believe the incentive to win an extra treat – as well as getting a refreshing pint of Old Speckled Hen – will be a great way to get people engaged with the product and even get those that have never tried cask to give it a taste. We promise it’s not a trick!”
Gangly Ghoul, the 4.2% premium bitter, will also be available for pubs to stock for October, as part of the Greene King Fresh Cask Releases calendar, a portfolio of 18 limited-edition cask beers available at specific times throughout the year. With warming toffee characters and a touch of orange peel citrus and spiciness, Gangly Ghoul is a great seasonal cask to trial on the bar.
