Golden Thread

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 its outstanding character - a fact backed by it winning multiple consumer awards from CAMRA, SIBA, Tesco and The English Hop association.
