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.

Cask at Queens Head. It pours deep brown with a small beige head. The nose is sweet dark malts, dried fruits, caramel, wood and leather. The taste is smooth, caramel, earth, toast, pepper, wood, faint charred notes, cola and dried fruits with a bitter-sweet finish. Light body and soft carbonation. Not a whole lot to it. Decent enough mild.

5.9/10 — Appearance 6 Aroma 6 Flavor 6 Texture 4 Overall 6.5
Bouteille: Deep chestnut-amber coloured, smaller off-white foamy layer; dryish - but not completely dry - toasty nose with fruity and ashy traces; light to moderate sweet-bitter flavour, pretty light bodied; lingering drier bitter-roasty finish, dried fruits and ashes and caramel detectable. Not too exciting, but still well crafted…

(Cask at Harp, Charing Cross, London, 9 Apr 2014) Dark brown colour with foamy, beige head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of caramel, dark bread and dark fruit. Malty, roasted taste with caramel, chocolate, nuts and a slightly bitter-sweet finish. Rather light body, with a touch of sweetness. Well made and balanced mild ale. Quiet nice.

6.8/10 — Appearance 8 Aroma 5 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7
Medium coarse pale beige head. Clear dark brown body. Faint fruity aroma. Dry-sweet fruity grape and freshly cut wood taste with spicy notes. Mild, soft, flat mouthfeel. Dryish fruity perfumy grape aftertaste with spicy caramel notes. Lovely, drinkable, subtle. Can’t really pick up the rye much. (0.237l cask at Union Tavern, London.)
