answer: A great choice for Kippers and poached eggs is AB:18 (Imperial Brown Ale Aged In Rum Casks.). Here's the recipe:
  AB:18 began life as an Imperial Brown Ale before we bombarded it with Scottish tayberries and Purple raspberries and locked it away in rum barrels for two years, infusing rich dark fruit flavours and oaky warmth into the mix.
