The clue is in the name. A rich deep golden strong ale. The name is derived from the days when sailors from Merseyside would demand full rations. The high level of alcohol is complemented by increased bitterness and the fruity hop finish is derived from a combination of Fuggles First Gold and Cascade hops. A real favourite. **Silver Medal Winner at the SIBA Great North Beer Festival Strong Cask Beer Category 2010** This beer has just been selected for entry into the new guide '300 More Beers To Try Before You Die' which is edited by RogerProtz Author of the Good Beer Guide.
