Actually, it's called Oxford Brewing Company. British Brewing Company was a 
bankruptcy or two ago. The former brewer, Dan Carter is a good friend of mine. 
Many of their products are about as British as many of those across the pond. 
However, you do not see too many Raspberry Ales in the UK.

The bad news is that Dan no longer works there. He has done a few guest brews 
at Bardo and is moving to Erie, PA to start a new brewery in June. I expect 
Oxford will revert to the bad QC days of before.

Cheers, Rick
