JEREMY CLARKSON held a booze-up at a brewery to celebrate his Hawkstone lager.

The event at Hawkstone Brewery at Bourton-on-the-Water was exclusive to Hawkstonians - members of the brewery's monthly subscription service - and was attended by Clarkson's Farm co-star Kaleb Cooper, who recently launched his own cider, and Mr Clarkson's partner Lisa Hogan.

It was a celebration of "the hard work that farmers put in to creating beer, cider and his new vodka produced authentically with local ingredients."

Hawkstonians were treated to food and entertainment at the live event, including performances from musicians JP Cooper and Jack Savoretti.

Clarkson was also seen placing a bet with bookmakers Fitzdares, alongside other guests, as to where in the field a camel would defecate in a game he has named “sh*t yourself rich”.

Clarkson said: “It’s been another brilliant day out with the Hawkstonians. The food and music have been great. And of course, Hawkstone lager and Kaleb’s cider have been flowing all day.

“We also took the opportunity to launch our new vodka, made from the best wheat from my farm.

"Everything produced under the Hawkstone brand name is authentically made by hard-working farmers using local ingredients – the Hawkstone slogan is ‘hard to make, easy to drink’ and we are all here celebrating that.”

The event was the latest in a series to celebrate Clarkson’s lager, which is named after the Neolithic standing stone situated close to his farm and became the best-selling lager on Amazon eight hours after it was launched in November 2021.
