Notes
Spitfire Premium Kentish Ale was first brewed in 1990 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Battle of Britain and to raise money for the RAF Benevolent Fund. Since then, Spitfire has helped raise more than £250,000 for a range of armed forces charities, particularly the RAFBF and Help for Heroes, and has become the first beer to be accepted as a licensed partner of the RAF.
