Love in Idleness is a Grisette style beer (basically a low-ABV saison with a high proportion of malted wheat) which was brewed using flowers from our friends at Living Under One Sun, the community allotment next to the brewery. We wanted to brew something to help raise awareness and money for their fund-raising campaign to open a community hub in Tottenham.
