It seems to be impossible to checkout commits with GitKraken.
As you can see there is no option to checkout older commits, only Cherrypick commit but I don't know what this is good for.
EDIT: I was able to checkout with another git program (git bash) via console:
Now it looks like this in GitKraken:

To checkout a tag in GitKraken, simply right-click a tag from the central graph, where tags are denoted with a 🏷 tag icon. From here, you can select Checkout this commit to checkout the tag in a detached head state.
The Git checkout command tells Git to which branch or commit you want your changes applied.
First, checkout the branch that you want to take the specific commit to make a new branch. Then look at the toolbar, select Repository > Branch ... the shortcut is Command + Shift + B. And select the specific commit you want to take. And give a new branch name then create a branch!
GitKraken (as of version 1.7) does not seem to offer a way to get into a detached HEAD mode, and check out a commit directly. Similarly, it will also not allow you to check out a tag (since that would also give you a detached HEAD).
So instead, you will have to create a (temporary) branch first which you can then check out.

They finally implemented this feature yesterday (Sept. 25th, 2019).
Users can now enter a detached HEAD state by clicking the commit you wish to checkout and selecting
Checkout this commit.
