Salopian Golden Thread
Brewer: Salopian Brewery
Style: Blonde Ale / Golden Ale
Alcohol Content: 5%
Seasonal: No
Description:
Cask; Regular.
OG: 1048
Colour: Light Gold
Style: Of our core brands this has the most pronounced bitterness. A triple hopping of English First Gold gives powerful citrussy flavours and vinous aromas, however the malt grist of barley, wheat and lager gives plenty of body and sweetness which balances the assertive bitterness.
History: Golden Thread is Salopian’s oldest servant having originally been brewed in 1996. At that time a strong golden beer was a rarity as the current trend to golden ales had yet to escalate. Strong ales are becoming increasingly difficult to market, partly due to health and driving concerns, and partly because there are so few outstanding examples available. Golden Thread has sold consistently well because for a strong beer it is ridiculously easy to drink and because of it’s outstanding character – a fact backed by it winning multiple consumer awards from CAMRA, SIBA, Tesco and The English Hop association.
