    Old Peculiar’s many talents are indeed legendary. That it travels so well was, until now, one of the lesser known ones…

    Thanks for the transatlantic transport, Nick! Great seeing you in NYC. Two more English beer reviews coming soon…

    I have a 10 oz bottle of Old Peculier Original Yorkshire Ale, imported from England, imported by Montello Brands, Inc., Baltimore, MD. I have had it since 1982, unopened. Do you have any idea as to the value of it?
    Thanks,
    C.J. Abel

  4. C.J., thanks for writing in. I, myself, couldn’t tell you. You may want to contact the brewery (or importer) and see what they advise. Could be a community of beer collectors out there that they can steer you towards.

    I truly miss the old wide mouth Old Peculiar bottle! Bring it back! Bring it back! Bring it back!

    I would be interested to know what gravity the beer is I am sure it used to be stronger than 5.6 % as all OLD ALES were. It was normal in the Midlands for the old ales to be 7% or stronger and served in nips(one third of a pint)
