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.

Light haze on this gold beer, big fluffy pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has a fine biting crispness. Very light malts. A fair serving of floral yeasty bitterness. Light citric peel and lemon. A sharp crisp finish. Quitte drinkable.

Craft Tottenham Court Road. Keg. Lightly hazy amber beer, small pale cream colour head. Palate is light, semi dry and has decent carbonation. Light and mildly sweet malts. Modest hop skunk. A bitter and slightly savoury floral vibe. Trace of toffee before the light semi dry finish. Interesting but doesn’t really lift off.

Keg at CBC SG - London. Pours mostly clear reddish-brown with a creamy tan head. The nose holds toasted grains and pine, earth, damp wood. Light sweet flavor with a dominant bitter, woodsy character to it, some leaves, orange peel, earth, burnt grains, leathery berries. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Strong earthy, dirty bitterness to finish, more toasted grain, some husk, wood, old and musty berries. The beer is a little bit unfocused and the bitterness is out of balance, especially in the aftertaste. Otherwise, it’s OK.
