Moncada Brewery
Microbrewery in London Borough of Brent, Greater London, England 🏴
Established in 2011
Closed in 2021
We began Moncada Brewery in the colourful area of Notting Hill. Julio surrounded himself with like-minded craft beer obsessives and became inspired by the neighbourhood – creative, vibrant and hemmed with diversity – and the Notting Hill beer range was born, which makes up our core range today.
Later, in 2017, we moved to Dollis Hill to expand and explore a new locality. A new place marked a new start, and the Blueprint beer series was launched, focusing on experimentation and limited edition releases, with a touch of eccentricity.
Relocated once more in Spring 2018 to the current address.

Bottle, thanks Junco. Aroma of cardboard, apple, not much else. Taste is similar apple, light hoppy spikiness. Bit earthy citra style. Not sure to be honest.

8th August 2019 GBBF Day 3. KeyKeg. 10.4%. Almost opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Smooth and slightly soft palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Soft luxuriant dark malts and dark malt cream. The vanilla intersects and produces lovely chocolate. Yeah - custard in the finish. Simpleish but so very well executed.

22nd July 2018 Opaque dark brown beer, small tan head. Nose of chocolate creme brulee. Smooth palate, reasonable fine carbonation. Taste follows the nose. Good Creme Brulee with plenty of dark chocolate. Tangy dark fruits, blends well. Smooth finish, slighty warming. Some dark chocolate covered Crunchie Bar here. Good stuff.

1/2 pint fra fat på The Harp (Chandos place), aug-19: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Myk, innsmigrende og full av friske humleinntrykk. Tropiske frukter, citrus, friske aprikoser og litt lynghonning. Superbalansert og farlig lettdrikkelig.
