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.

Bottle. Pours clear dark golden with medium white foamy head. Aroma is malt, grain, lemon, hops, hay and hints of iron. Taste is light sweet, light to medium bitter and light to medium acidic. Body is light oily with sparkling carbonation. Finish off medium long and mostly bitter with notes that follow the nose plus some sugar, dandelion and woody notes.

Five Tuns at Heathrow terminal 5. Hazy, golden. Light head. Aroma and taste are both light, tangy fruit. Citrus, pump clip claims apple as well but I found the citrus a bit sickly and overwhelming. Not my cup of tea but not terrible.

On tap, half pint at Goat Tavern, London. Clear golden color with thin creamy white head and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of grassy hops, grainy malt, mild fruitiness with some dusty notes. Taste starts with light sweet bready malt, follows refreshing but mild fruity with rather dry mouthfeel and light bitter finish. Light to medium body, slick texture and soft carbonation in palate. Not much better than average lager...
