Description
Hammerton Brewery is a microbrewery based in Islington brewing small batch beers with the aim to bring great tasting beer back to the borough and also re-establish the Hammerton Brewery name in London.

Hammerton Brewery originally began brewing in London in 1868. Sadly it ceased to brew in the late 1950s and was later demolished. In 2014, a member of the Hammerton family decided to resurrect the family name in brewing. It also brings brewing back to Islington, a London borough with a great beer making heritage.

Pours a hazed blonde, witbier like. Nearly no aroma, very gentle indeed. Taste is sharp, loud in bitterness. Very citrussy, grapefruit pleasantly malty finish. All very lemonzesty, fresh and crisp. Very enjoyable !

Pours cloudy, light strawyellow. Small white head. Scent is very mild, some citrus. Taste is sharp, light, citrussy, bit bitter - which lingers. Recognizably alcoholfree, yet enjoyable and pleasant. Fresh and crisp, rather than exhaustingly drinking NA
