As promised, here are the beers from Evershed. Weird how the records ended up in Scotland.
It seems one of the Youngers, William J. Younger to be precise, did a bit of work experience in Burton. He kept his own personal, handwritten brewing book. Which he took back with him to Scotland. It wasn't that unusual for brewers to keep their own private records in parallel with the official brewing books. I've come across a few of them in the archives.
Evershed used a typically Burton system for naming their beers. Ales numbered 1 to 7, Stouts P4 and P5 and the enigmatic O. It had me confused for a while. A long while. Until about half an hour ago, in fact. A beer of 1060 with 5 or 6 pounds of hops per barrel. Then I twigged. That must be the Pale Ale.
