About
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.

Bottle on the train to Edinburgh, cheers to Willis for the pour - 08/12/12 (bottle sourced from that gaff at St Pancras - Source Market?). Very dark mahogony brown approaching light black with a thin tan head that retains well. Mose is hops, jammy notes, dark malt, light smoke. Taste comprises dark malts, touch of chocolate, hops, some pine, smoke. Medium bodied with bite, soft carbonation, dry finish. Overall good stuff, but perhaps a little young and fresh - may benefit from a bit of ageing?

From tap, half-pint, drunk in a cosy atmosphere at the splendid Craft Beer Co, Islington. Dark apricot coloured body. Spotty lacing to the glassware. Prominent aroma of citrus shells. Succulent taste character offering a mix of fresh and dried fruits added by lighter notes of spices. Lingering bitter ending. Well balanced. Brit IPA at its best (London, 26.11.2012).

Bottle at Chriso tasting, thanks Bruce (Deeblo), 18/11/12. Hazed mid amber with a thin off white head that soon forms a little film and scatters to the edge. Nose is pine, hops, tropical fruits, mango. Tastes as nose, big pine kick, hops, citrus tones. Medium bodied with soft carbonation leading to a bitter finish. Decent stuff.
