Description
Our calling came from above to bring the taste of heaven to Herne, god looked down and saw that it was 'Goody Ales'.

We were both teachers before we saw the light. A voice from above said let there be light ale.

It was written in scriptures that towards the end of days, a brewery would be born in Herne and it will be named Goody Ales.

From that day forth fine ales will be brewed using the god given fruits of the earth - barley, water, hops and a sprinkling of manna.

Goody Ales use traditional methods to produce cask conditioned and bottled English beer. We brew with the finest quality floor malted Maris Otter barley and Kentish hops. The brewing process utilises nothing more than malt, water, yeast and hops to provide you with pure Kentish beer.

Cask at the Claret. It pours black with a thick tan head. The nose is earthy roast, quite muted, toast, coffee grounds, liquorice and light spice. The taste is smooth, soft bitterness, earthy roast, liquorice, chocolate, light peppery spice and mild acidity with a dry finish. Medium body and soft carbonation. All quite mellow and soft. Easy drinking, but not a whole lot to it.

Bottle conditioned from Strand Wines Walmer. Earthy golden ale. Some citrus and white pepper aroma. Oddly decent. Very drinkable if earthy and lemony. Good though.
