Description
We're Hackney Brewery — a small, independent craft brewery from London who has been dedicated to producing the most progressive accessible styles of hop forward independent craft beer to high standards.
We’re passionate about producing high-quality beers which are not only flavourful and aesthetically pleasing but also suitable for anyone who is interested in trying good quality craft beer. We've spent years refining and progressing our recipes to keep up with people’s ever-changing taste.
We were founded in 2011 by Peter Hills and Jon Swain in a couple of railway arches in Haggerston, Hackney.
Over the years we’ve invested in state-of-the-art lab equipment, new machinery and we strive to continuously improve our processes and work to get the best out of our ingredients.
Now with a focus on Keg and Can formats with modern and US hop forward styles, we provide a complete core range of crafted styles from Session-able table beers, hop forward pales and IPA’s, hazy juice bombs, a multi award winning peach and basil sour and crystal clear craft lager.
In 2021 we opened our new site on the Blackhorse Beer Mile, High Hill Taproom, home to Hackney Brewery.

Lõhn on puhas atsetoon, maitse õnneks mitte, ainult õrn hapukus, rukkis, linnased. Okish, lõhn on päris jube.

Keg at the Pelt Trader, City of London. Pale yellow, a little bit hazy with a film of white head. Lots of lacing. Tropical fruit, melon, some apricot, some sweat. Bittersweet taste with more tropical fruit alongside some vegetal character, and a bitterness in the finish. Starts a lot better than it ends. Decent enough but a half will do.
