Sammy Salsberg became Toronto’s first ticket broker when a friend asked him if, in his busy Kensington Market store, he could find a buyer for a pair of tickets he couldn’t use. The store became a hub for life in Kensington, ultimately inspiring the CBC show “King of Kensington” which ran for 5 years in the 70’s.

This kosher salt rice lager is the perfect balance of malt and hop flavour and aroma. Cracker-like malt flavors, herbaceous hop quality, and a crisp bitterness all present nimbly on the palate, with a slight kosher salted finish.

Pored a 473ml can into a tumbler. A one finger bubbly white head on a hazy lemon. The head soon diminishes to a thin layer. Minimal lacing.
Faint lemon smells.
Malt forward. Some salt. Pretty much a standard lager otherwise.
Medium body and carbonation.
Overall an interesting Gose like lager.
