....real ales but this is stunning. Waitrose and the CoOp http://www.hall-woodhouse.co.uk/beers/badgerales/hoppinghare.asp Light and very aromatic. If gewurztraminer did beer they would do this one. |

No, just the Hopping Hare. I once bought a mixed case of Welsh ales from a food fayre and kept one of each to try and gave most away. One of them was identical to the Hopping Hare but the brewery went bust and I eventually gave up looking for something similar but, fortunately, one of the people I gave the beers to stumbled across the Hopping Hare in Waitrose and told me to try it. It's wonderful. More like a very aromatic lager than a beery beer. GK will probably think it a bit girly* G *...and buy 10 cases |

I received some funny looks in Aldi last week. They sold a lager over Christmas which I found delicious, Arcobrau Winterbier, I noticed they had reduced the very agreeable price of £1.59 a bottle down to £0.99p to clear. You could hear me half a mile away as I rattled through the checkout and on to my car pushing a trolley loaded with 37 loose bottles. Cheers! Next time I'll take the wife with me. |

G, have you tried the other Badger ales? Their "thing" is to add something to their beers (generally) to give interesting aromas and flavours Golden Champion - Elderflower Golden Glory - Peach Blandford Flyer - Ginger Poacher's Choice - Liquorice and Damson They judge the amount pretty well. It's just a hint, not overpowering. I like them all. |

Golden Champion - Elderflower Blimey. A beer that tastes of gewurz AND a beer that tastes of Sancerre. Shall try it out. Not sure I fancy the others but will probably give them all a go. |

The Golden Champion is nice indeed but the Hopping Hare has it by a short hair. |

Tribs....what is the Hopping Hare supposed to taste of. The Golden Glory has far too strong a peach flavour. |
