Twickenham Fine Ales' is a microbrewery in Twickenham in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Founded by Steve Brown in 2004, it claims to be the first brewery in Twickenham since the closure of Cole’s Brewery in 1906.[1] It opened in September 2004[2] and is now one of the oldest microbreweries in London.[3] It has been brewing at its current premises in Mereway Road, Twickenham[4] since December 2012.[3]

Its range of ales includes Naked Ladies, named after the statues in the gardens of York House, Twickenham.[2] A bottled version of this beer was launched in 2013.[5]

Monthly specials[edit]

Summer Down Under (3.9%) A light golden ale, using the Galaxy hops from Australia and Pacific Jade hops from New Zealand.

Black Eel (5%) India pale ale. It is brewed with Magnum, Ahtanum and Chinook and then dry-hopped with more Chinook and Galaxy with Carafa Special No.3 de-husked barley malt which adds more aroma, body and a darker eel like colour.
