Description
The Wimbledon Brewery was started by William Cook in 1832. Following a number of changes of ownership, the brewery was taken over by William Quartermaine in 1880. It was Quartermaine who built the five-storey tower brewery, the highest building in Wimbledon at the time.
A fire started at the brewery on January 2nd 1889 and although the interior of the building was badly damaged and all the brewing equipment and machinery destroyed, the main structure of the building was left intact.
Today’s Wimbledon Brewery can be characterised in very similar terms to the one described above. Our logo incorporates the image of the tower, the phoenix and barley and hops, representing our heritage and our focus on using only the best ingredients. We are custodians of the heritage and traditions of beer brewing, whilst also inspiring the new generation of beer drinkers and brewers.

Cask at the Eldon Arms, Reading. Golden amber with a loose white head; fresh grassy aroma; sweet and fruit in the mouth with some berry fruit; and a strong, crisp, grassy, bitter finish. A rather good citrus-free summer ale.

Pours a clear bright golden colour with a minimal loose white head that quickly dissipated to a loose film. Light malt and citrus aroma; similar taste, light sweet malt and citrus hop bitterness with a crisp dry finish. A good refreshing summer beer.

Light haze on this gold beer, thin pale cream colour head. Palate is light and fairly dry, decent fine carbonation. Modest sweetness from the light pale malts. Floral sweetness. Hops are a light but spicy tangerine - orange. Dry spicy finish shows some sweet esters and mild pine. Mild bitter linger. Not bad, just a little recessed.
