Gold is a beer to treasure. Made with a blend of Caramalt and Maris Otter malt and brewed using lashings of English Fuggles hops for fresh vitality and distinctly herbal, earthy notes, if you’re searching for a beer full of character, ‘X’ marks the spot.

500ml bottle watching England vs Switzerland Euro 2024. Given to me by a rep, but bizarrely a year past it's BBD. Pours a generally clear gold, white head. Aroma of caramelised malt. Flavour profile definitely seems more caramelly than expected, probably due to the age, fair sweetness to it, but nicely so. Drinks well. Not bad.

Cask at the London & County, Eastbourne. Poured a mostly clear golden colour with a thin frothy white head. The aroma is malt and yeast. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a smooth, yeasty, light caramel, earthy, light woody hop bitter palate. Medium bodied with soft carbonation.
