Beavertown is to create up to 150 jobs with the launch of London’s largest brewery.

Beavertown has opened the doors of of its new brewery, Beaverworld, which is located Ponders End, Enfield.

The new facility will enable the brewery to produce up to 500,000hl and to brew in 150hl batches, equivalent of 90,000,00 pints per annum, on its Krones brewhouse.

Logan Plant, founder of Beavertown, said: “Beaverworld has been a long time in the making and we’re thrilled that we’ve now started brewing on site in Enfield.

“We’re confident that with Beaverworld, we have created a quality-driven brewery with passion and love for the craft at its core.

“Beaverworld is the answer to our dream of getting more Beavertown in the hands of the masses and we could not be more excited that it’s now up and running. With Beaverworld we’re expecting to create our own lasting-legacy.”

Historically, the Beaverworld site itself has been a place of great invention with the first electronic valves developed there by Sir Ambrose Fleming, establishing Ponders End as an important centre for the manufacture of electronics for the 20th century.

It is this illustrious heritage and heart of innovation that Beavertown wants to retain and build upon; through supporting the trades and beer industry as a whole, and the positive ripple effect that Beaverworld will have on the local community and beyond.
