Description
Twickenham Fine Ales was the first brewery in Twickenham since Cole’s Brewery closed in 1906. In the beginning there was a 10 barrel plant which was installed in a small unit opposite a Greggs Bakery factory – pint and a pasty seeming natural bedfellows.

The early days of experimentation and trial settled down with the arrival of Tom Madeiros, as Brewer, in 2005. Being American the use of American hops seemed a natural path and Twickenham became an early adopter of the now popular and more common place hops used in many beers today.

The variety of hops grew and Twickenham now uses hops from countries including: England, Germany, Slovenia, USA, Australia and New Zealand.

Cask at the Waterloo Tap, 10/04/19. Light black with a handsome beige covering. Nose is dark malts, honey dollop, light cocoa dusting, toffee. Taste comprises dried fruits, toffee, mellow bourbon rip, hint of chocolate, dates. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, semi drying close. Decent mild with a twist ... the honey and bourbon link well without becoming too sweet.
