Description
Two guys born and raised in Croydon met shortly before the London riots in 2011 at a beer festival, and found they both were having thoughts about starting up a new brewery in the area. After nearly a year of test brewing,
planning and trying to find financial backing, The Cronx Brewery was formed in 2012.
In 2016 the Cronx Bar was opened in Boxpark Croydon. Run by a great team, the bar always has a wide selection of real ales and craft beers available.
‘The Cronx’ is a portmanteau of Croydon (Or it’s postcode; CR0) and The Bronx, and has been used as an affectionate tongue in cheek reference to the often much maligned London Borough we call home.
Closed in 2024. In 2925 the brewery site and equipment taken over by Titsey Brewery to use as a 2nd location. Subsequent Cronx beers startes to be brewed again.

Cask at Cronx Bar. It pours deep mahogany brown with a small beige head. The aroma is rich, creamy, festive spice, cinnamon, chat latte, dried fruits, wood and leather. The taste is smooth, woody, leather, chewy malt, cinnamon, nutmeg, gingerbread, fruit cake, caramelised sugar with a warming, spiced finish. Medium body and low carbonation. Rather nice spiced character, but needs better condition. Decent enough.
