Captain Ian Farquhar has officially announced his retirement from the mastership of the Beaufort Hunt.
He made the decision after 34 years in the role and was rewarded with a specially made beer called The Old Captain.
The brew was created by The Flying Monk Brewery in Malmesbury - they wanted to do something to mark Mr Farquhar's retirement.

His daughter Victoria now has The Old Captain on tap at her pub, The Holford Arms in Tetbury - she thought it right to let her father pour the first pint of the brew.
