Description
Beavertown was founded in 2011 by Logan Plant, the son of Robert Plant, singer with Led Zeppelin. At first established as a brewpub in De Beauvoir Town, East London as part art of the Duke's Brew and Que experience. Expanding means moving! In 2012 to Hackney Wick and in 2014 to Tottenham Hale.

In June 2018, it was announced that Heineken would be buying a minority stake, so that Beavertown could spend £40 million on a new brewery and visitor site. The new brewery was launched in 2020, with a capacity of 500,000 hectolitres, a ten-fold increase in their previous capacity.

As of 7 September 2022 Heineken has taken complete control of Beavertown and now has 100 per cent ownership. Founder Logan Plant will stay on as an adviser.

Tap at the Hope, Wandsworth 10/08/2024 Light fruity hoppy aroma and taste, slightly citrus fruity with notes of lemon and grapefruit, light malty backing, bitter dyes hoppy finish. Packs in a fair bit for the modest 2.8% to be fair.

0,44 boks fra lokal sjappe på Muswell Hill, delt med Steven i hagen deres: uklar gyllengul med fint skum som varer. Søte appelsiner, lychee og hint av citrongress i en lett maltkropp. Fruktig og lettdrikkelig på en varm sensommerkveld. Ble litt småsur helt mot slutten.

0,44 boks fra lokal sjappe på Muswell Hill, delt med Steven: brunsvart med ok skum. Mørke karamellsjokolader, vanilje, nytraktet espresso og hint av bjørnebær. Ganske slank, men allikevel gode greier.

On tap. Il gusto al naso resta attratto dal luppolo. L'intensità olfattiva è elevata e la durata è sufficiente. Il mantello birroso superiore è caratterizzato da una schiuma bianca pannosa dalla buona tenuta. La grandezza delle bollicine è medio-fine. Il liquido è di consistenza limpida. Poche bollicine medio-fini costituiscono la forma del perlage, con carbonazione persistente. Il colore è giallo dorato brillante. Il corpo è strutturato. L'amaro è intenso. La forza gustativa è elevata e la persistenza è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano luppolate. Il retrogusto è intenso. In bocca l'aroma è quello di miele, crosta di pane, frutta secca, luppolo, resina, pino, agrumi, pompelmo, ananas e arancia.

440ml can from Morrisons, Sheldon. Poured a crystal clear yellow golden colour with a lasting frothy white head. The aroma is earthy malt, light tropical citrus. The flavour is moderate to light bitter, with a light, watery, herbal, super light citrus, funky yeasty dry bitter palate. Medium to light bodied with average carbonation. Well there’s a few quid wasted. Poured the remainder down the drain. One of the worst beers I’ve had in a long time. Makes me wonder if something went wrong during brewing or canning. This probably speaks volumes about their quality control, but if this is indeed how it was meant to taste, it speaks volumes about the direction in which Heineken is taking this brewery!

Can. Almost clear gold beer, tidy bubbly pale cream colour head. Light palate, a good fine minerally crispness. Light smooth pale malts, sweet enough. Good crispy cooling pine with what tastes like added mandarin juice. It works well enough with the strong pine. Light finish. Like a Brewdog beer but less shit.

31/VII/24 - 33cl can from Weyermann Living & Drinking (Bamberg, DE), shared @ Ardennes Holiday, BB: 30/I/25 15:57, F300125 L1 (2024-641)

Clear very pale light yellow blond beer, small creamy white head, a little stable, a bit adhesive. Aroma: wort, little fruity, banana peel, some chlorine, very malty, sugary impression. MF: ok carbon, medium to light body. Taste: very sweet and sugary, a little fruity, some peaches, peach flavoured candy, watery, meh. Aftertaste: very watery, some citrus notes, sweet and sugary, grains, wort, meh. Very disappointing. This is the first Beavertown beer I’ve tried since December 2018, and I guess now I know why. Heineken has completely fucked up this brewery.
