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 Horse & Groom, Chobham. Aroma combines fruit and rye. Clear brown. Frothy off-white head. Light bitter. Grainy. A touch of spice. Underlying fruitiness provided a touch of sweet edged sourness. Medium bodied. Slick. Flat-soft carbonation. Long dry finish. It's pleasent enough.

Okay foam on a soft gold body with okay visible carbonation. Vegetal hops and curdling cardboard on the nose, like any macro lager. Taste is chewy grain, caramel hints, finishing smooth. Really lacklustre.

Bottle at home in Hackney - picked up at M&S Canary Wharf. Pours totally clear yellow-gold, lightly effervescent, with a frothy, pure white head. Lightly sweet with basic, grainy pale malts, biscuits, touches of bitter straw. Light bodied with fine to average carbonation. Decent balance in the finish. Drinks fine. Basic gear.
