Visit To Some Wetherspoon Pubs For Some Of The Best Real Ales

editor — Mon, 11 Mar 2019 22:48:00 +0000

JD Wetherspoon is a chain of around 1,000 pubs across the UK and Ireland. They’re famous for selling some of the cheapest drinks in town, they serve big portions of cheap food, they don’t play music, and they don’t always have the best atmospheres (that’s a euphemism for saying they are a bit crap). However, they do reliably sell a lot of real ale and it’s often well kept—in fact, nearly 300 Wetherspoon pubs are in CAMRA’s Good Beer Guide and twice a year they hold huge real ale festivals, inviting world brewers to collaborate on one-off beers. A big

The Bermondsey Beer Mile They Should Rename It Beermondsey

editor — Sun, 10 Mar 2019 22:56:00 +0000

Just south of the River Thames, and running parallel to it, is a long succession of elevated train tracks leading in and out of London Bridge station. In the arches beneath these railway lines you’ll find a section running right through Bermondsey, which has become London’s most brewery-populous area. It’s a unique London thing for so many breweries to operate from railway arches—there must be at least 15—but these locations offer relatively cheap rent, have a decent height, and maintain a consistently cool temperature, which means they work well as brewing spaces. In Bermondsey, if you plot the breweries on

Visit To The Blue Anchor, Helston Not Quite Britain’s Longest-Running Brewpub

editor — Sat, 09 Mar 2019 23:04:00 +0000

In the 15th century, Cornwall’s Blue Anchor Inn was a rest house for monks and it soon after become a beer-brewing tavern. It has that great British tradition of being a brewing ale house, something you would find across the country hundreds of years ago, and is certainly one of Britain’s oldest still-serving pubs. Although there’s no evidence to support 600 years of continuous brewing, we can say beer has been made there since before the turn of the 20th century. Regardless of the specifics, beer has been central to The Blue Anchor for its entirity and it’s one of

Top London Craft Beer Spots to Visit

The Kings Arms in Bethnal Green (11A Buckfast Street, E2 6EY; www.thekingsarmspub.com) is a quiet, unassuming corner boozer, but when you get inside you’ll see one of London’s best-selected beer lists. I like it because it’s a proper pub (not a bar) and it always has extraordinary beers. They have some superb sister pubs, including The Axe in Stoke Newington (18 Northwold Road, N16 7HR; www.theaxepub.com), which does a good roast dinner. The Harp in Covent Garden (47 Chandos Place, WC2N 4HS; www.harpcoventgarden.com) has become a go-to pub for some of the best-kept cask ales in the city. Harvey’s Best
