Early lunchtime after a gloomy walk around the Olympic Park. Plenty of beer left over from last night’s Tap Takeover with Australia’s Pirate Life. Just a handful of customers.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Pirate Life - Throwback IPA3.50ExcellentOn keg dispense. A hazy, golden, Session IPA. Citrus and pine hop tastes and a bitter finish. Great for the strength.
Pirate Life - Stout7.10ExcellentOn keg dispense. A heavy, black Stout. Chocolate, hops and oatmeal.

One of the regional (North East London) launch parties for the London Beer City week is taking place here tonight. I arrive a bit late, in a shower of rain, but there are still a few familiar faces here.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Brew By Numbers - 55/02 – DIPA: Mosaic Columbus8.00ExcellentFrom key-keg. Superb, strong IPA.
Fourpure - London Beer City 20164.80GoodFrom key-keg. This year’s special beer, a collaborative effort by several London breweries including Fullers. Perhaps not quite as special as I was hoping – but I’ve been on the good stuff tonight.

Busy on a Saturday evening, with the deckchairs at the front particularly popular in the evening sunshine. It’s a bit pricy here, but lovely by the canal on a summer’s evening.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Five Points - IPA7.10ExcellentOn key-keg dispense. A very good, strong IPA. It must have been very fresh on as there was no build-up of CO2 at all.
Del Ducato - Violent Femme4.20ExcellentOn keg dispense. A very murky gold colour. A hoppy saison-style beer from Italy.

A very pleasant spot on a sunny evening. Acutely expensive.
BeerABVScoreNotes
Renaissance Brewing - Boonies XPA5.50ExcellentOn keg dispense. A golden and well-carbonated beer. Nicely chilled. Lovely fresh hop tastes.
Renaissance Brewing - Boonies IPA5.70ExcellentOn keg dispense. Quite similar to the XPA – slightly more mellow hop flavours and a shade stronger.

The pub is found in Stratford, Greater London, E20 3BS.

A spacious new bar and restaurant, opened in June 2016 by east London beer entrepreneur Ed Mason and others. Associated with The Five Points Brewing Co. The bar has a canalside aspect and is one of a line of new bars and restaurants opened at the same time in the former London 2012 Olympics Media Centre. Served by the 388 bus route from Stratford to Hackney. Specialising in ‘craft beer’ and ‘street food’ – two phrases that still need italics, whilst their definitions develop. Closed in September 2018 due to insufficient footfall other than at peak times.

We have visited this pub 4 times, seen 8 different beers and tried them all.
