Another recent Youngs beer for you. And one which was requested. By at least one person. Hopefully, I’ll soon have lots more for you. From lots of different eras.

I remember this beer quite well, as I drank it quite a few times. Mostly because it was bottle-conditioned. I'm not aware of it ever being sold on draught.

Though the recipe is very similar to the Pale Ale parti-gyle, this wasn’t part of it. In this case, it was with a beer called LA. Did that stand for Light Ale or London Ale? I’m not sure. I’ll need to ask one of the former Youngs brewers.

Not that the grist is much different. There’s just a slightly lower percentage of crystal malt. Otherwise, it’s just the same. Still just two types of maris otter pale malt to go along with the crystal.

All English hops again. The same ones as in the Pale Ale parti-gyle.
