I am only making a valid complaint in a very isolated area and is no reflection on how I would rate Lidl generally. The current re-labelled Golden Goose Ale has dropped from a reasonable 4.5% to what I believe is the same Golden Ale peddled by Aldi at 4.1% ABV. Golden Goose was a fine medium to strong golden ale on a par with Hobgoblin Gold but has been reduced by 0.4% probably by commissioning Marstons to create the same mediocre ale sold at Aldi and does not fool anyone. If serious about competing with Aldi, Lidl should have left the Golden Goose Ale at 4.5% ABV and charged a pound for it. I will not buy the weaker version and rather pay ten pence more for the IPA at 5% ABV.
