Burton Bridge California Dreamin

COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Cask; Special (Gold Medal Ale series) - June 2006.

In 1577, Francis Drake in Golden Hind, with four other ships, set out from Plymouth to sail around the world. By June 1579 Drake’s ship was the only one remaining and it was anchored in a bay just north of San Francisco, further north than any other Europeans had been. This was where California was claimed for England and named Nova Albion. On his return to England in 1580, Drake, as the first Captain to circumnavigate the world, was knighted and his discovery of Nova Albion led directly to our colonisation of America.
