Golden Glory

This is a 4.5% beer from Badger. There are funny floral motifs on the bottle and I remember buying this beer several times and for some reason I always forget about its taste. But it is actually good, somewhat different than your ordinary real ale, as if some juice was mixed into the brew. Indeed, the back of the bottle says that "peach blossom extract" has been added to "enhance the floral blend". Whatever. Very fresh, slightly lemonly, to be served chilled. Ideal for summer afternoons, not very much so on winter nights by the fireplace. Taste profile on the back of the bottle gives it high sweetness and fruitiness.
