About
Duncan Sambrook founded Sambrook’s Brewery in 2008 when there were just five breweries operating in London. With his vision of bringing brewing back into the heart of London, Duncan pulled ex-brewer David Welsh out of retirement and back into his dungarees and wellies. To

Since 2008 we have been brewing beer in Battersea, but after 12 years on our current site we have decided to relocate a mile up the road to Wandsworth Town. Later in 2020 we will be brewing beer on the site of the Ram Brewery where we will launch our new tap room and visitor centre.

6 years ago
6.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 7 Flavor 7 Texture 6 Overall 7.5
330ml bottle - Pours a dark brown black colour with an average sized foamy tan head. A rich roasted malt aroma, espresso coffee, liquorice and burnt grain. Medium to heavy sweet taste, roasted malt, burnt sugar, bitter coffee, liquorice and plummy flavours with a semi-drying warming alcohol finish. Very nice end to an evening.

Imperial Stout from Sambrooks Brewery

7.6/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
330ml bottle, many thanks to Mark for this. Drunk at home after celebrating mine and blackhaddock's 10,000th beer in the quarry park. Dark appearance, pleasing beige head. Nicely rich character overall, good roast presence, woody with dark chocolate, with some welcome burnt espresso notes. Nicely balanced. Good Imperial Stout.

Cask at Jugged Hare. Slightly hazy golden with a small, white head. Aroma is faint caramel and grass. Taste offers more with a slightly bitter hoppy tone, some caramel and citrus. Very nicely drinkable.
