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.

Can. Nose is pineapple, lychee, slight herbal and hedgerow. Taste is herbal, lychee, slight pineapple, wheat, hint of lemon, sour citrus note, hint of resin. Thin body for the style. There's not much taste and what there is, is very jumbled. Surprisingly poor

Can from Sainsbury's Supermarket, Leeds Station. Golden with a surprisingly easy texture for its strength, which allows a fair hoppiness and some tropical fruit notes making it a flavoursome brew. Nose is similar.

330ml can at the Six Barrel Drafthouse, Victoria. Light gold and clear with a film of white head. Smells of light citrus and pine hop along with honey and corn syrup. Sweet, sweet taste.the sweetness buries the hoppy flavour u til the finish when a bit of balance peeks out. Soda-like body with heavy carbonation. Doesn't feel like a beer, and while the sweetness makes it a lot more pleasant to drink than many low alcohol IPAs (e.g. some of Big Drop), it gives it more of a soft drink feel.

Can from Tesco Inverurie. It pours hazy swede gold with a bubbly white head. The aroma is sweet, perfumed, guava, watermelon, bubblegum, peach, mango, orange fanta and floury bread. The taste is crisp, dry, pithy, zesty, bitter orange, tangerine, grapefruit, orange blossom, bit green, herbal, floury bread, splash of lemonade and some kinda spice with a dry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Aroma is more standout than the taste, which is more subdued. Not bad overall.

Can at home, from Tossco online, 16/06/22. Moderately hazed golden yellow with a good sized just off white head that stays for the show. Nose is orange zest, grass, melon, papaya, grass, citric tinged straw. Taste comprises bitter orange, grass, light pine, melon, raw pineapple. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with mellow hop bitterness. Passable IPA ... just a touch bland and boring ... sad the way Beavertown has gone tbh.
