Whilst most of Fuller's beers are brewed to be enjoyed, by and large, in pints, we also boast an exceptionally fine very strong bottled ale, the formidable Golden Pride. At 8.5% alcohol by volume, it is as powerful as some wines.
This superb quality premium beer is the equivalent of a Belgian 'Abbey Beer' and is arguably the 'grand cru' of Fuller's bottled beers.
Following the success of 330ml bottles of Golden Pride in pubs it has been launched in a new 500ml bottle, pictured here, so now the true connoissueur can enjoy this fine beer in the comfort of their own home.
In days gone by at Christmas, as a special treat, Fuller's pub landlords tend to keep a small barrel of draught Golden Pride on the back of the bar, dispensing to customers in strictly limited quantities. Italian fans, meanwhile, enjoy this 'birra doppio malto' on tap all year round; an excellent argument for emigrating to Italy at once.
