S & N Earlybird

Anyone got a recipe for something similar to Shepard and Neame's Earlybird?

My misses likes it, the draught version, not the bottle.
Tea is for mugs...

Well I would guess Goldings are involved, as Early Bird is one of the Goldings cultivars.

I believe that SN Earlybird is a single hop ale. So I'd go for a recipe around pale malt, a dollop of crystal (not to much I should't think), then Earlybird or EKG (or any Goldings) for bittering and late hopping. In additiona I'd ask Brewlabs for a SN yeast vial; they used to supply this not so long ago, so probably still do.
