GK at it again with a bang-average beer! Golden amber with a frothy / creamy white head and a light malt aroma. Smooth and a touch creamy, biscuit malt, a hint of spice, some floral hops and fruity notes, a touch of bitterness and a dry finish.

Cask at the Assembly House, Kentish Town on 14th April 2026. Coppery amber with shallow, dull foam and almost no lacing. Almost cidery apple aroma. Spiced apple and sour citrus in-mouth and a vinegary finish with mustiness. Flat mouthfeel and indeterminate body. Undrinkable.
