Hello friends! We'll be kicking open the doors on Yak#2 in Deptford on Saturday (assuming I can get our tiler Big Mad Andy to actually finish the work on time!). Located on Creekside in the Artworks, hope to see you there for a pint in the sun/cloud. ❀️

Kill the Cat's innovative original branch in Brick Lane closes end July, though thankfully the more bar-like Spitalfields branch will remain open. One of London's most interesting bottle shops but it seems the future is drinking in. @BeerGuideLondon @Pisci

Wish I was there to see it, nothing like yeast working its wonders on a beer you were involved in creating. Particularly when it's a historic strain like this one.
The London X (Pale Mild) that I brewed with @desdemoor has been fermenting vigorously overnight and is smelling quite fruity this morning

Only just outside London and an interesting initiative. Your author knows this route well, grew up just outside Hertford and walked both the New River and the Lea Valley Path this way.
Enjoy an ale trail with a difference, travelling by rail along the New River Line which runs between #Hertford East and #Broxbourne, created by @CrpNew and @SouthHertsCAMRA newriverline.org/news/new-ra…

Thamesmead's first craft beer bar, from @rockleopardbrew, has been given the green light - but a council blunder has given it a 6pm curfew and bans it from opening on Sundays buff.ly/3weJZ21
