Harrier Real Ale
 
My brother-in-law (a brewer) has been asked to make a real ale for an 'end of Harrier' event and he's asked me for ideas for a suitable name. I've thought of:

Hover Stop
Kestrel's End
Wittering No More
Bedford's Bitter
Golden Rivet (for the SHAR boys!)
Falklands Freedom

Any more ideas gratefully received but he needs the name by Fri 14 Jan... HELP!!!!

Bona Beer;)

Lord Trenchards Brat 12th Jan 2011 15:41

A few to add and promote further thinking:

Peggy Power (Peggie or Pegasus)
Reaction Nozzle
Puffer Duct
VIFF
Jump Jet

Would like to know who's brewing it and where the outlets going to be if your able to tell us!

RIP Harrier

Surely it won't need a name - it will just announce itself as a Harrier ale .....:E;)

Alternatively how about ....

"Hover Stop" sounds good to me....
Mine's a (free) pint!

engineer(retard) 12th Jan 2011 16:01

Surprised they went for a beer and not a whine :E

Otherwise Bona Beer sounds good

Thanks so far, sadly he's only providing one barrel, so no freebies or bottles to buy!

BEagle 12th Jan 2011 19:42

If it's normal brown beer - 'Bona Beer'

If it's double stout - 'La Muerta Negra'

If it's lager - 'SHARmonade'

Bismark 12th Jan 2011 20:21

How about "Shafted Ale" or "Torpy's Revenge"

Of course I'm not bitter!

"Due to customer demand Cotleigh decided to re-launch Harrier as a refreshing, lower alcohol beer. It is designed to appeal to a more modern, health conscious drinker" :ooh:

Shome mishtake shurely?

Or perhaps they had just visited Wittering?? :E

I thought Harrier pilots preferred these.:E

I'm surprised we can't manage to get a ".... Blowjob" or similar out of any of the talented chaps we have here...

So to speak... :E

Is this connected to the thread "Falklands War Brewing"?

Just wondered.......:)

NorthernKestrel 13th Jan 2011 10:39

"JumpJet Juice" ;)

'Hawker Hangover'

orgASMic 13th Jan 2011 11:09

Go for a German-style dark lager and call it 'Ems Dunkel'.

bobward 13th Jan 2011 11:51

Bona Beer??
 
Doesn't this bring up shades of "I'm Julian, and this is my friend Sandy, from Round the Horne" all those years ago......

Possibly not the image for macho aviators to project, or maybe.......:confused::confused::confused::ouch:

A2QFI 13th Jan 2011 12:37

Hover Bovver - perhaps not!

What a conundrom....a beer for SHAR shovellers....aside from alcohol free, warm and with an umbrella, what about;

Stovies Surprise
Nozzle Throttler
Puff Daddy
Fox 1 Splash


Helpful hints from an ex-pinger and bagger....

Matt Skrossa 14th Jan 2011 12:45

Thanks for all the names, he's settled on 'Hover Stop'. Hope those going enjoy the day, the beer, the memories and the dits! I'll have a quiet beer too and recall sleepless nights on 2 Deck and being in FLYCO during Bosnia times.

Mick Strigg 14th Jan 2011 12:49

I was going to suggest "Prima Donna", or more appropriately "P45", but it appears I'm too late.

John Farley 14th Jan 2011 13:40

If it is for a Harrier event then call it

Dunsfold
