Inspired by the Helles lagerbiers of Munich, this is a true London lager. German malt, European malts and London water come together to produce a smooth, crisp and flavourful beer. In the spirit of Das Reinheistgebot, we use the spunding method to carbonate our lager naturally, while an extended cold storage in horizontal lager tanks gives our beer time to condition and mature. As all true lagers must.
The inspiration behind the artwork comes from our move to our new brewery in Croydon. It is located very close to Croydon Airport, the UK's only International airport between the wars. It was also where the legendary pilot Amy Johnson took off to become the first woman to fly solo from England to Australia in 1930.

Had on tap. Pale golden murky body with finger of eggshell white head. The yeast here is broken, almost has a beet aftertaste to it. In the nose is tampers the grassy hop hints and honey malts. Taste is dominated by this bad yeast profile, harsh. Malts are watery, yeast is broken, pale leaning hops are ok on the finish I guess. Skip this one
