Sadly Morlands was bought out by a bigger brewery (Greene King) a while ago,
subsequently closed down and production moved to Suffolk. However they do
claim to have changed the chemical composition of Suffolk water to match
that of Abingdon so the beer tastes the same, which it seems to. So those
ultimate concourse buffs amongst you must now travel to Abingdon with your
5-gallon can and put the 'correct' water in the engine and washer bottle ...
