Golden Glory

Tap to rate

Golden Glory is a peach ale at 4.5 %, golden amber in colour. Ripe peach dominates the aroma, with subtle malt and a floral note behind it. The taste follows suit: juicy stone fruit up front, light and evenly balanced hops. That note carries the beer from first smell to finish, which makes it one of the most clearly fruit-led ales in the range. It is available all year.

◌ Aroma

Ripe peach dominates the nose with immediate juiciness and stone-fruit character. Subtle malted grain provides a soft, supportive undertone, while a delicate floral note adds complexity without overshadowing the fruit. The aromatic profile remains cohesive and inviting from the first nosing onward.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with pronounced juicy peach and continues this fruit-forward thread throughout the mid-palate. Noble hops contribute restrained bitterness and a gentle herbaceous edge that balances the sweetness without dominating. The beer maintains equilibrium between adjunct and base character, allowing neither to overwhelm.

◑ Finish

The peach character carries through to the finish with a clean, moderately dry conclusion. The aftertaste settles into subtle stone fruit and a whisper of malt, fading gradually without harsh edges.
