Wimbledon Brewery Pale Ale

This zesty pale ale definitely punches well above its modest alcoholic weight. Using English Maris Otter hops and Cara malt, some of the head brewer's favourite ingredients, the result is a smooth beer with a juicy feel on the finish.

Wimbledon has a brewing history stretching back to the Middle Ages, but the modern Wimbledon Brewery began in 2014, founded by Mark Gordon. After a career in the City, he set out to brew high-quality English beer in his home town and brought in experienced brewer Derek Prentice, formerly of Youngs, Trumans and Fullers. These days you'll find the brewery close to the site of the medieval Merton Priory just south of the town.
