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 from føtex carlsberg. Golden, small white head. aroma is flowery sweet and bitter industrial hoppy (vomit bitterness) flavor is malty sweet, flowery honey sweet, maybe also french white caramel sweet, hoppy herbal green fruit peel vomit bitterness. i kind of like the malty and sweet flowery profile, but the bitterness is way too much green mouldy citrus fruit peel metallic vomit for my taste. ( and i love grapefruit flavored hops, it is the kind of bitterness here i don’t like)
