Bottles of beer brewed 86 years ago for the coronation of Edward VIII -- which were left unopened upon the event's cancellation -- will go on sale next month.
, commemorating the occasion, Greene King said in a press release Tuesday.
"It is absolutely fascinating that these beers have been lying in the cellar for 86 years, having originally been brewed to celebrate the Coronation of Edward VIII on 12th May 1937," said Kate Williams, a royal historian and author working with Greene King to look into the history of the canceled coronation, in the release.
"The elaborate Coronation preparations took over a year to arrange, but by the time the event came around he had already abdicated, leaving the ceremony, and these celebratory beers, redundant," said Williams.The beer at the time was 12% ABV and was made using English hops and barley to give it a rich fruity flavor, according to the brewery.
