Purity Brewing Company’s Mad Goose has won best bitter at the first ever Beer Awards staged by the International Wine and Spirits Competition Group (IWSC).
The latest accolade sees Mad Goose named a five-star beer and extend its run of national and international awards. The 4.2% ABV zesty pale ale is brewed with Maris Otter, Caragold and wheat malts, with Pilgrim bittering hops and Cascade and Willamette aroma hops.
The Beer Awards’ aim is to highlight exceptional beers in order to make consumer drinking choices that little bit easier, with medals acting as a credible point of difference on a crowded shelf to influence purchasing decisions both in the on- and off-trade.
Ewan Lacey, managing director of the IWSC Group, said: “The sheer volume and variety of entries this year have surpassed expectations and we are incredibly excited to grow the awards and recognise as many outstanding beers as possible in the future.”
Purity founder, Paul Halsey, added: “It’s great to see Mad Goose being recognised as a truly great beer. From its real life, visitor-terrorising namesake at the farm, to the latest brew, Mad Goose remains a true fan favourite and an integral part of the Purity story.”
