Description
Bramwells Malt Vinegar is Aldi’s budget-friendly take on a classic British condiment, widely used for its sharp, tangy flavour that pairs perfectly with fish and chips. Sold in a standard 568 ml plastic bottle and it is one of the most affordable malt vinegars on the UK market.
This vinegar is made from water, barley malt vinegar, and barley malt extract. While it’s vegan and vegetarian-friendly, it’s not suitable for those on gluten-free diets due to the barley content. Nutritionally, it’s very low in calories, sugars, fat, and salt, with only 16 kcal per 100 ml, making it a virtually calorie-free way to add acidity and flavour to meals.
Taste-wise, Bramwells delivers a punchy, slightly malty kick typical of traditional chip shop vinegar. It’s ideal not only for classic pairings like chips and pies, but also useful in salad dressings, marinades, and gravies where a little acidity is needed. While some may find it slightly more acidic or less refined than premium brands, most consumers find it delivers excellent flavour for everyday cooking and table use.
In terms of value, Bramwells competes strongly with other supermarket own-brands such as Tesco or Asda, all priced similarly. It also ranks among the most popular malt vinegars on UK grocery comparison sites.
Overall, Bramwells Malt Vinegar is a dependable, no-frills option. For shoppers looking for a cost-effective way to enjoy the classic tang of malt vinegar without sacrificing flavour, this bottle delivers all the essentials.
