Evening visit until late.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Iron Pier - Superdelic Hobbit Hole4.80GoodFirst pint poured away by bar staff to make line fresh and cooler I assume. Neither did I want a hazy ale nor a lemon juice one but got the two in one
Hand Brew - Shaka Pale Ale4.00Not Tried
Hand Brew - Bird4.20Not TriedUnusually being sold on gravity. Brought to bar but suspected too murky by staff so not served to me
10 Jul 2025 (Philip Pirrip)
Brief late evening visit.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Kernel (The Kernel) - Running Porter5.40AcceptableClearly a great ale but would have been best more chilled. It was being touted as paired with Gorwydd Caerphilly cheese from Neil's Yard here

Late evening visit and only customer in so good chance to talk to the Guv. Seems opening of on-site brewery is getting very imminent.

The pub is found in Blackheath, Greater London, SE3 7AA.

A pub and small brewery venture in the Royal Standard area of Blackheath in Vanbrugh Park. It is a conversion of the previous imposing Barclays Bank building. It is the brainchild of the Common Rioters Brewery. Soft openings on 8th and 9th July 2022 to test systems and logistics then open from 13th July 2022. 20 wall keg taps on white tiled bar back wall and 2 handpumps on the basic wooden bar counter. The brewery is visible from inside the bar room at the far right hand end but at autumn 2024 is still not operative. Seating is at low tables and chairs. Emphasis is clearly on keg sales at the usual higher prices for them. Card payment only, cash not accepted. Initially open Wednesday to Sunday only, now Tuesday too.

We have visited this pub 97 times, seen 118 different beers and tried 84 of them.
