Impossibrew Golden Ale
By Impossibrew · UK
A limited-edition golden ale under 0.5% from Impossibrew, launched in September 2026, with “biscuity malt, floral hops and a clean, bitter finish”, Impossibrew says. It has 17.5 kcal per 100ml.
At under 0.5% ABV, this isn’t alcohol-free under UK guidance, which keeps the term for 0.05% or less. We list it with alcohol-free beers, as UK shops do. How UK labels work
What is Golden Ale?
Impossibrew added Golden Ale as a limited edition in September 2026, sold in boxes of ten cans. It describes “biscuity malt, floral hops and a clean, bitter finish”, brewed with floral English hops it doesn’t name. Impossibrew’s two core beers are Enhanced Lager and Enhanced Hazy Pale, and it also sells limited editions: on 28 October 2026, Triple Hopped IPA, Golden Ale and Peach Berry Sour.
The ingredients are water, malted barley, malted wheat, hops, yeast and natural flavourings, plus the same Social Blend as the core beers: soluble plant fibre, L-theanine, magnesium citrate, ashwagandha root extract, citrus extract and vitamin B1. Impossibrew says it’s vegan, and gluten-free at under 20ppm. It gives 17.5 kcal and under 0.1g of sugars per 100ml, about 77 kcal a can.
On 28 October 2026 Impossibrew’s own shop had it at £34 for ten cans. Dry Drinker and Wise Bartender don’t sell it. We haven’t scored it yet.

About Impossibrew
Impossibrew is a London-based brand of 0.5% beers, founded by Mark Wong, who still holds more than half of it, so we show it as independent. It sells mainly from its own shop, in boxes of 440ml cans, and its core beers contain what it calls a Social Blend: soluble plant fibre, L-theanine, magnesium citrate, ashwagandha root extract, citrus extract and vitamin B1.
