Hammerton Brewery is a microbrewery in Islington, London, brewing small-batch beers for cask, keg and can. The name goes back to a Hammerton brewery that began brewing in London in 1868, stopped in the late 1950s and was later demolished; in 2014 a member of the family revived it. Modern and traditional methods meet in the beers, and Crunch and City of Cake have both won SIBA gold.

They stay close to the peer baseline on their recurring notes.

How we measure this

Two thresholds are at work here:

  • The signature list shows notes that recur in at least 6% of this brewery's beers. A low bar — enough to flag a pattern, not high enough to call it an exclusive trait.
  • The peer comparison below shows only notes where this brewery's coverage differs from similar breweries by at least 20 percentage points. A higher bar — enough to call a real difference, not a nudge.

A note can appear on the signature list without appearing in the peer comparison: it recurs here, but similar breweries do the same thing.
