Frank’s makes it three

Dorset-based independent family brewer Hall and Woodhouse is marking its Founder’s Day on 8 June with a new limited-edition beer, Frank's Integrity. The 7 per cent ABV refined and warming, bottle-conditioned chestnut ale is a tribute to former chairman Frank Woodhouse, and is the third in a series of five Founder’s Day beers which are being released annually in the countdown to the brewery's 250th anniversary in 2027. Founder’s Day has been a Hall and Woodhouse tradition for many years, as a way of celebrating the key people who have moulded the brewery over the last two centuries and more.
