This weekend we'll have the first of our seasonal special green hop beers available at our taproom. We've brewed just 20 litres of Hopdodger IPA using fresh hops foraged from Kent by one of our lovely regulars who also helped out with the brew. Get yourself a pint while it lasts!

Number of 25C days each year at #London Heathrow from 1949 we see 2026 with 82 days is far exceeding all historical precedent.

The former record year 2018 now eclipsed by 20 days and we're not done either. Remarkable year.

It may be a rainy start to the Bank Holiday weekend, but you can still enjoy a beer inside our taproom. Hopefully tomorrow the outdoor seats will be back in the sun. We're open our usual hours, 2-8pm Saturday & Sunday, closed Monday.

Looks like there’s an absolutely massively fire in London at one of the recycling centres near Millwall’s ground… again.

Don't worry too much if you did badly in your A-levels, things could always be worse. For example you could have done badly in your A-levels and also have to drink beer from Jeremy Clarkson's brewery.

DID you know that for the 1999 total solar eclipse, Roger Ryman, recently appointed head brewer at St. Austell in Cornwall brewed a one-off special beer called Daylight Robbery? Anyway, it was so popular it was brewed again, and they called it Tribute. Now you do know!

Unfortunately, our taproom will be closed for the weekend of 8th & 9th August due to a road closure. We'll be back to business as usual (Saturdays & Sundays 2-8pm) from next weekend.

In fifteen years, the UK has deleted coal power from their power system, halved fossil gas use, replaced most of that with wind and solar, and the country has not suffered the hellish blackout apocalypse conservatives and media outlets promised would happen.

Today experienced the 24th day of year hitting 30C in London.

For perspective in whole of 1980s we had 21 days.

It's back to business as usual at our taproom for the next couple of months, after our summer tour of local parks and fetes. We'll be open every weekend, 2-8pm Saturday and Sunday, with cold beers, wine, cider and softs, and seats in the sun or the shade.

Was hoping for the crossover event of the decade wherein - when football DID finally come home - it found a bunch of other sports attempting to shag Mrs. Football and so had to disguise itself as a lowly beggar to partake in (and win) an archery contest.

Football then murders all the other sports

Apropos of nothing I'm starting an occasional thread on the importance of Clacton-on-Sea, Essex, to the story of human evolution.
Its one of the most important Palaeolithic landscapes in Europe and we should celebrate that fact a lot more.
Look out for updates #ClactonPrehistory 🏺🦣
