About
Established in 2004 by Robert Wicks, the Westerham Brewery Company is proud to bring brewing back to the historic town of Westerham. With a rich brewing heritage, Westerham can once again be proud of locally brewed, top quality real ales. Producing exceptional craft beer for the local market, we support the initiative to reduce food miles in the supply chain. Many ‘national brands’ are transported long distances and suffer from poor storage and handling.

Westerham Brewery Company has revived many of the much-loved flavours of the old Black Eagle Brewery, which closed in 1965 following the catastrophic consolidation by the ‘Big Brewers’ in the 1950’s. The yeast is re-cultured from the Black Eagle strain.

Lahev (@The Bottle Shop, Bermondsey): Golden to deep golden, quickly collapsing loose white head; mild spicy - hopefully Saazy - hoppy nose with a bready-malty background; mild to moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour, malty base hardly detectable, light bodied, at least soft; slightly lingering spicy-bitter finish, unfortunately only slightly balanced by some pale malt.

Bottle at home. This was a pretty standard bitter. Plenty of malt, bitter hops and a pleasant mouthfeel made this an acceptable pint. It's not one I would seek out again, but it was ok.

Bottle at Monacute House. Pours golden with fluffy white head. Not much aroma, perhaps faintly citrus. On the taste it’s bitter & malty, some citrus & biscuit. Zingy hoppy finish. Medium body. Brewed with Kentish hops & English barley. It’s not bad

330ml bottle bought at Tuckers Maltings. Bubbly white head, fair lacing. Next to clear amber-gold body. Subdued mid-sweet malt fruity aromas. Lightly flavoured with caramel malts, bread and some dried fruity notes towards the ending, slightly bittersweet. So and so. (Shared with djoeye and Finn, Tromsø 18.05.2017).
