Twice Brewed

The Twice Brewed Inn (in the village of Once Brewed) supposedly gets its name from a visit by General Wade in the 18th century - it is said that he found the beer so weak that he demanded it should be brewed again! However a more prosaic explanation is that it relates to the number of brows in the hills behind the village. (Incidentally, it is General Wade who is partly responsible for the destruction of many parts of Hadrian's Wall as he ordered a military road to be built across the country, sometimes using stone from the wall and sometimes sitting on top of the wall itself.)
