Auxiliary Ale - Your Thoughts Please

[CART Web Monitor]

This is post is designed to be seen on this page http://www.coleshillhouse.com/auxilier-beer.php

We have a week to discuss the name of the beer…..

I have suggested “Auxilier” but would like more ideas from the group before I let Bob Millard (surviving Auxilier) decide on the final name in a weeks time.

It needs to be 1 or two short words.

Please use this post to discuss and share your ideas for the name.

'Auxilier' or 'The Auxilier' sounds good to me - similar to 'Bombadier'

How about

Gubbins' Tipple
Auxiliary Ale
BRO Beer
BRO Brew
Oxenden's Revenge
Underground Ale
Churchill's Resistance )
Churchill's Revenge    ) add beer, ale or whatever
Churchill's Secret      )
Fleming's Fancy

or any combination thereof

I love Gubbin's Tipple.....

Nice one Peter.

[Clive Bassett]

Some great names, also a superb idea. This was done at the Violette Szabo Museum and I believe did very well. Only other name I could think of, with punch-line "Highworth Ale"  - "It does its stuff", kind regards to all, Clive.

[Bill A]

How about    "AUX ALE"  or "PARTIZAN"  hic.

Like the label a lot

[Peter D Antill]

If there's 'Partizan' there's got to be

'Resistance Fighter'

although both of these are pretty generic, groups in Western Europe tended to be Resistance Fighters while in Eastern Europe and Russia they were generally known as Partizans.

Post below on behalf of our member Austin Ruddy who cannot use a forum at work.

Hi Tom
What a great idea for fundraising.
I like the name Auxilier, but how about a slightly more mischievious name of 'Scallywag'?
Hope to meet you in July

Regards
Austin

[Martin Dixon]

Auxiliary Ale seems to scan a little better than Auxilier but either way a neat idea,
Regards, Martin

I viewer has emailed in having seen some local press and thinks the name should be "Auxilier Ale  - Ready to serve if cold"

Nigel Bown in response to the Swindon Article suggested

RESISTANCE

A pint of "RESISTANCE" please !
 

[Scallywag Steve]

Hello Tom,
My preference for the name of the beer would be 'AUXILIER' as it reflects the true title of the organisation and captures the spirit of the movement. If you're including PARTIZAN could you please spell the word correctly - it is PARTISAN.
Regards,
Bill

Right guys,

Bob is making his decision on this tomorrow.

Anymore suggestions?

[CART Web Monitor]

Ok Bob will be deciding on the name for the Ale at 3pm today and his videoed message will be on this page later today.

[Clive Bassett]

Excellent choice Bob, can't wait to sample it, Cheers, Clive.
