The story of the Mackeson brothers of Deal, who purchased a brewery in the little Kent town of Hythe and turned it into a producer of one of the twentieth century's most remarkable brewing success stories, milk stout, is presented here. The beverage gained popularity in bars and stores all around the nation and even made an appearance in the "Rovers Return" snug on Coronation Street. The family's path was not without its difficulties. From 1801 to 1901, four generations faced economic depression and recession, war, a suicide, bankruptcies, lawsuits, wastrel and importunate relatives, and premature deaths. However, there were also triumphs, such as transporting the Koh-i-Noor diamond to Queen Victoria, discovering a new dinosaur, and ultimately receiving a baronetcy.
