Mid-evening and nowhere near as busy as it would typically be at this time on a weekday.

One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Light Machine3.00ExcellentCloudy pale gold and very fruity indeed. A collaboration beer with Big Smoke Brewery.
One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Morello Cherry Gose4.20AcceptableFrom keg. Reddish gold in colour. Very fizzy, so first impression is that it is a bit like cherry cola – then the saltiness kicks in.

Busy in the early evening to the point that people were sitting outside in the cold.
BeerABVScoreNotes
One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Extra Stout4.00ExcellentNear black in colour, dry and roasty.
One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Gose Fleur de Sel4.20ExcellentOn keg dispense. Gose seems to be the beer style of the moment in London. This one is as salty as its name suggests.

Early evening. My first visit here since brewing has settled down in Tottenham with a much bigger production level.

Early evening visit. One Mile End Brewery have now relocated to Tottenham, taking up the space recently vacated by Redemption Brewery, although they will continue to use the little brewery in the cellar here for small-scale projects.
BeerABVScoreNotes
First Chop Brewing Arm - SYL6.20ExcellentA Black IPA. Strong. More like a Stout with a heavy hop-load in fact. Very nice indeed.
One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Hospital Porter5.20GoodA roasted, bitter, black Porter.
First Chop Brewing Arm - SEN3.90AcceptableA routine, amber-coloured Bitter.

One Mile End Brew Co. (formerly Mulligans at the White Hart and then WH Brew Pub) - Great Tom Mild (or Great Tom Winter Mild)3.80ExcellentA tasty, dark brown Mild. A bit roasty and very well-hopped for the style.

A group of 20 meet here for 11am opening (see previous post) only to be told that actual opening time is 11:30. Most shove off to the Pride of Spitalfields, whilst I await stragglers. In fact the pub opens at 11:20 and eventually the full party is assembled here. To add to our frustrations, there is no home-brew available to sample on cask – the reason I was bringing the group here in the first place.

Ilkley - Fireside Porter4.20ExcellentBlack and smoky.
40FT - Larger4.80GoodOn keg dispense. My first taste from Braumaster Ben’s latest project. Unfiltered, Kölsch-style beer but with good US hop presence. Very nice. Lager drinkers in the group were raving about it.

I popped in here in the early evening to warn the kitchen that I was bringing a group of 25 in for the ‘Brewers Breakfast’ at 10:30 on Saturday morning, as advertised on their website. Surprised to be told that the pub does not open until 11am, the kitchen not before noon and that nobody had ever heard of a ‘Brewers Breakfast’ – the info and menu on their website is apparently ‘wrong’.

The pub is found in Whitechapel, Greater London, E1 4TP.

This pub was present at the London end of Mile End Road as early as 1750. It was rebuilt in its present form in around 1900 and is a striking building with a cupola high above the corner door. In the 1970s and 1980s it was the principle pub of the small Murphy’s chain of East End pubs, owned by a family of that name. This pub in particular became known simply as ‘Murphy’s’, and the White Hart name was forgotten for a while. It was notorious for its late night lock-ins, and a tap on the side door in the early hours was usually rewarded by the chance of a sly late one. At this time the pub retained superb etched-glass partitions and mirrors. All that was swept away some time in the late-1990s in a controversial refurbishment that left the pub with a large, open-plan, wooden-floored main bar and a function room upstairs. Further refurbishment came in 2013, and this saw the introduction of an open view kitchen and a micro-brewery in the cellar. Brewing was initially in-house, with beers sold variously as Mulligans at the White Hart or as WH Brew Pub. This brewing venture met with mixed success and in August 2014 the new One Mile End Brewery took over the kit and was immediately successful with its full-flavoured brews. The brewery quickly outgrew the premises and, in the summer of 2016, relocated to Tottenham. 6 handpumps on the bar counter. In September 2022 the pub passed to McMullen.

We have visited this pub 53 times, seen 117 different beers and tried 73 of them.
