BeerABVScoreNotes
Track - Sonoma3.80GoodDifficult to judge the condition of this murk of a beer. Held reasonable head and lacing but I have no idea what it is meant to be
27 Jul 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Early evening visit. I looked round and noticed almost every beer customer was drinking murky beer. Who started this awful trend and why, it made me wonder. Just one of the two handpumps in use still.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Duration - Ambition4.40AcceptableA murky pint with little malt or hops flavouring identifiable. Just wet alcohol. I don't accept this stuff as beer
05 Jul 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening visit. Second handpump repaired but one cask only on as a usual Wednesday.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Lakes - Pale Ale (was 3.5%)3.40GoodTasty brew that could have been cooler to improve it
29 Jun 2023 (Philip Pirrip)
Evening in and out visit. No cask on - staff said the Kernel Table Beer, for which a pump clip was turned round, had not been right.

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 89 times, seen 104 different beers and tried 75 of them.
