First sold beer: April 2015
In a distinctive industrial building on a quiet street between Battersea Power Station and Clapham, Mondo was created by two US expat homebrewers, Tom Palmer and Todd Matteson.
After some early pilot beers at UBREW, it began commercial production in March 2015 with a 10 hl kit from Zip Technologies in Hungary. A replacement 20 hl brewhouse was installed in 2017, followed by additional fermentation capacity and a new canning line in 2019. The site has long boasted a dedicated taproom, and in March 2023 a second venue opened at Borough Yards SE1, in partnership with a pizza maker, though this had closed by early 2024.
The company went into a prepack administration in April 2024, becoming a sister business of Hogs Back Brewery in Surrey when the latter’s owner, Rupert Thompson, invested in setting up a new company to buy it out. But there are apparently no plans to move production out of London: the deal is promised to ‘secure the future’ of the Battersea site, where further investment is planned in the taproom.
Beers are in keg, can and bottle.
