Herwood (search for this): article 13
Tavern sign --Entier!--Before the year 1730 the English publicans sold to the thirsty souls of their day three sorts of beer, which they drew from different casks into the same class, and gave to this mixture the name of "half-and-half." The owner of one of these publics, (history has handed down his name Herwood,) wishing to spare himself the trouble of performing this task so constantly during the day, hit upon brewing the beer which would combine the qualities of all these beers. To this compound he gave the name of "entire," which has adhered to it till this day, at least on the sign boards. It was afterwards christened "porter," because principally drunk by that class--The English at Home.
