If you're thinking London has had enough of the avocado, sadly not: a Shoreditch pub will start serving avocado beer next month.
For those looking for a taste of the ultimate fad-tastic craft beer, Long Arm Pub on Worship Street will pouring pints of Avocado Stout for £5.50 a go from the beginning of November .
The press office for the pub say dark malts have been "combined with a subtle creamy avocado flavour and aroma" of the millennial-friendly fruit, with avocado having been just after the secondary fermentation. Regrettably, it is not a luminous shade of green.
A pint of the stout also comes guilt-free for animal-lovers, ticking the very 2018 box of also being 100 per cent vegan.
The pub does double as a Tank Fresh brewery, meaning the publicity-hungry stout is pumped straight from 500 litre tanks on site.
