About
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 Pigs Ear 2014 - London. Pours clear brown with a frothy, off-white head. Pleasant citrusy hop aroma with some toasted malts and orange rind. Light sweet flavor with more bready toasted malts, some burnt wood, earth, grass, more orange rind. Light bodied with fine carbonation; nicely conditioned. OK balance on the finish, some twigs and earth, butter grain husks. Not at all bad.

24th Jan 2015: shared bottle at the Cotteridge Wine bash. Poured a really deep, dark brown with a creamy textured beige head. The nose was of dark fruits and molding yeastiness, the taste was sour with wine vinegar and cherry like flavours. Interesting but not really my thing.
