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.

Pours a ruby brown colour with a small tan head. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee, and raisins. A sweet fruity malt taste, brown sugar and honey flavours and a light dryness in the finish. A decent enough mild, perhaps a bit too sweet.

Cask at White Hart, Tongham. Herbal, floral, citrus aroma. Overuse of cleaning products on pub floor. Surprisingly attractive for a bitter: an opaque amber. Thick frothy white head. Medium bitter. A citrus bite. Malty tones lie beneath. Medium bodied. Thinnish. Flat carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. A decent bitter, but could have sworn it was something else when handed to me.

Keg at Mother Kelly’s - Bethnal Green. Pours mostly clear gold with a foamy, white head. The nose is all dry pith and minerals. Light to medium sweet flavour with a little doughy malt, very faint butter, meringue, hay, lemon peel. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Finishes moderately sweet, with some white bread and ripe citrus fruits. Pretty so so overall.
