Description
Brixton Brewery is one of London’s established craft breweries, making beer in the heart of one of London’s most colourful and famous neighbourhoods. We were founded in 2013 by two local couples, Jez and Libby and Mike and Xochitl, but our shared passion for beer started years before that, when we met in the old Hive Bar (now Craft Beer Co. Brixton), and bonded over newborn babies, and a dream of opening a brewery. We reckoned that every great neighbourhood deserves a great brewery, and we wanted to bring one to Brixton.

In 2017 Brixton Brewery announced the biggest news in its short history. That it had partnered with Heineken UK in a deal that would enable the business to open a second site in Brixton, boost capacity nearly tenfold from its 3,000hl site to up to 30,000hl, and significantly grow its team as a result.

As per 2021, Brixton is 100% owned by Heineken.

Brixton now only carry out small-scale brewing. Production brewing moved to Beavertown in September 2024.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up at Oddbins. Pours clear yellow-gold with a foamy, white head. Jammy lemon in the nose. Light sweet flavour, notes of white grape and pineapple, wheat flakes, nips of acidity. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Finishes with more ripening citrus fruits, lemon, pineapple accents. Not bad.

Oranjebruin bier met schuim wat snel wegzakt. Smaak is bitter hoppig en fruitig met iets van mango en abrikoos. Mooie balans in bitterheid en fruit.

Fra fat på The Woodman Highgate nov-18: klar gylden med ok skum. Mild citrus, granskudd, ananas og nyslått gress. Fruktig avslutningen. Takk til Tom the landlord, som markerte bursdagen sin ved å spandere øl på alle gjestene!
