like a symphony on my taste buds...................delicious 8)
Golden Champion is good as well.
Yum yum beer that is
If that's the peach blossom one I totally agree, perfect chilled.
I do like the taste of a golden badger.
Not a big fan of the ginger one.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm golden glory..
Gorgeous summery ale. Love the stuff. Got a thirst on now thinking about it.
St Peters organic ale going down rather well just now.
Proper Southern ale! ๐
Try some Summer Lightning as well!
Not a big fan of the ginger one.
Big fan of it here....called Blandford Fly. Very refreshing.
you're making it very difficult for me not to go and open one now
Blandford Fly is a superior sup come the summer months.
+1 - really like blandford fly.
Badger ale is good stuff
not completely sure about the Fly. I'll have to drink a few more to decide...
Can't believe there is support for Blandford Fly, first bottled beer I've ever tipped down the sink...
Just all wrong, I've another bottle of it that I can't give away as my mates won't touch it either...
+1 for all Badger beers that I've tried.
Fursty Ferret is also worth a swig in a sunny day.
Feel the same as ^^^ about Blandford Fly. Tried it once, not bought it since.
Dare I suggest Charles Wells Banana Bread Beer with a nice slab of tea cake?! MMmmmm.
They also do seasonal ales. Hopping Hare which is around now has a similar crisp / refreshing kick to the Golden Glory. Quite like the seasonality idea.
all the badger stuff is good, even the nettle stuff, lemony snicket is my least fave, but they all taste better on tap from a pub in dorset rather than from a bottle
Badger Long Days is great too as is their cider. Not too keen on the Blandford Fly though.
I've another bottle of it that I can't give away as my mates won't touch it either..
I'll have it, I will try any beer.
Badger beer is nasty, get some Isle of Purbeck ale on the go!
Pickled Partridge is another good Badger beer, Stinger nettle beer from River Cottage is also done through them and is rather nice!
I like a nice Harvey's Sussex Best myself, but for Summer beer garden it's gotta be Waggledance.
I've another bottle of it that I can't give away as my mates won't touch it either..I'll have it, I will try any beer.
You're welcome to it, Collection only though...
Badger Poacher's Choice is great too, but a bit strang like.
I do miss Badger - the Canucks haven't heard the word of the Badger Ale. Golden Glory is excellent, Blandford Fly is great fun too. ๐
mmmm Golden Glory - summer necking beer !
nicko74 - Canadian beer aint so bad.
What about Alexander Keiths? It was ok when I was over there. I also remember one of the LCBO's selling Samuel Smith's Taddy Porter.
You can't even get that in off licences in England.
I do like some of yer golden ales, I must say. If you haven't already, you must try Pure Gold from Itchen Valley. Brewed by an STWer, no less, Singletrackmind off here, and winner of 'Best Beer' at the Big Bike Bash two years running. Ask WCA, he will tell you.
No seriously, if you like yer golden ales, then it's a winner.
Never Liked Badger Beer, strange really, I've just never found one I like.
True Champion of Golden Ale has to be EXMOOR GOLD its BOOTIFUL
Help ma boab Tony thats exactly what I have just poured, one of my favourites - yum!
+1 for Blandford Fly. Also partial to Waggle Dance.
I want a bottle of Golden Glory right now as a result of this thread, and the shops are closed. Rather like Lemony Cricket too in the warmer months.
Ah, Waggledance was once a Sunderland brew, made by Vaux.
It's still a decent ale, despite being brewed down south.

i do love Tribute the most at the moment,very smiley ale.
Get bent....far too much nonsence above ๐
Timi Taylors Landlord, unchanged and still the best for over 100 years, bottled or hand pulled (using a sparkle!!!) it is fabulous.
(although that Golden Glory is bloody good gear...!)
Kev
Spent a lot of my youth trying to avoid Badger Beer pubs in Salisbury but they've definitely turned things around over the last few years.
Got back from a glorious day at Cannock Chase last Thursday and had my first taste of Golden Glory - a perfect Summer evening beer but I'm not sure I'd want to have more than 1 or 2. My wife spoiled things a bit when she said it smelled like Archers though!
On the topic of good ale I still can't recommend these beers from the Thornbridge Brewery highly enough:

Both a bit strong for sessioning...possibly!
They've also started a Pilsner, (which I know is taboo in most Real Ale threads) but this is far tastier than the usual fizzy fare...
BTW - I don't work for them!
Charles Wells Banana Bread Beer FTW
