ABV 4.8% bottle, 4% cask
Young’s London Gold is key member of the Young’s range. As the name suggests it’s a golden beer with a refreshing taste.
London Gold is available as a cask beer and also as a bottle conditioned beer.
The bottled conditioned variant is an unpasteurised, living beer, matured in the bottle for a fuller, more complex, multi-dimensional, fresher taste. With no artificial carbonation, the only fizz is the natural effervescence created by fermentation.

Cask at the Tin Goose, LHR T1 - 24/08/12. Pours a clear gold with thin white head which retained well resulting in plenty of lacing from top to bottom. Malt, grain, honey and a little citrus hops on the nose. Taste pretty much matches nose with a little grass and the honey still evident in the background. Medium boided, slightly overcarbonated leading to a slight bitter finish. First Youngs beer I’d had in a while and I was surprised - not a bad pint!
