Youngs Ram Brewery Tours Greater London hotels:

There has been commercial brewing at the Ram Brewery in the heart of Wandsworth since the reign of Queen Elizabeth I - the oldest site in Britain on which wholesale beer has been brewed continuously.
In 1581 beer brewer Humphrey Langridge was brewing at the sign of the Ram, a prominent Wandsworth inn since 1533. It is now the site of the Brewery Tap and present day tun room. Humphrey Langridge not only provided beer for the Ram Inn's own customers, stabling for horses and beds for travellers, but casks of beer for other local pubs and private houses. The modern brewery takes its name and trademark from the sign of this ancient inn - a ram traditionally denotes pugnacity and bravery. Water for brewing originally came from a well in the yard of the Ram,which still exists under the floor of the modern brewery.
At the Ram Brewery original brewing techniques have been preserved to produce award winning beers by methods that have stood the test of time. The brewing equipment is a remarkable combination of ancient and modern - with Victorian vessels standing alongside the very latest in brewing technology.
