Has woodfordes changed Nelsons

[Jon1964]

Never brewed Nelsons Revenge so just wondered if anyone else has noticed a change in the name.
Just started one off today, and the box says Nelsons Bitter 5% and the photo mentions bitter,but on websites its Nelsons Revenge.

Always used to be Nelson's Revenge. They changed the name to just Nelson's when the packaging was updated.
Queried this at the time and was told that the beer is the same...

Thanks VW911 - good to know
I brewed as per instructions and SG came out at 1.048 so if expected FG 1.010 will be 4.99% as per the old packaging
Cheers Jon

Yep - I brewed one up for Christmas. It was exactly the same as I remembered it...

The word ‘Revenge’ is probably considered to be too aggressive these days

Given recent trends more suprised they have kept the word Bitter in the name rather than rebranding as an Amber Ale (which I note is exactly what they have done with Wherry).

political correctness going mad again by the sounds of it
