I have been looking out for some of Tottenham's Redemption Brewery products which was the initial prompt for this thread. According to comments left on their Blogsite the beers are very good (well, I don't suppose the ones saying they were bad would last long on the site). The Wenlock and the Gunmakers have both stocked their ales and the brewery boss has indicated that the landlady at the Elbow Room in Tottenham is happy to stock it which would be my best bet in finding it but they have to get the OK from Barracuda first.
'Trainman' asked me the other day whether I'd heard of Wharfebank brewery and I had to admit I hadn't. However, West Yorkshire now has another micro to go at. Marvellous!

Good grief - who on earth is buying the stuff? I shall probably be in one of their pubs this evening, unfortunately. I will, at least, be starting in a pub where I can get some decent beer first.Originally Posted by hondo
I guess that this is a former King & Barnes house, so you had better ring first to check that Hall & Woodhouse haven't shut the place down...
Yes it is. H&W have closed a few local houses and I gather that a large number of those that remain are 'available'. I'm expecting the place to be open as we're seeing a band. Many local pubs are doing that these days. I suggest that Badger pubs have a more pressing need than most, as few people are going to visit one of their pubs to try their dreary beer-flavoured beverages.
Is it just the local pubs not looking after the beer, or do others find H&W beers utterly uninteresting?
I used to love King and Barnes, and rarely had the chance of drinking H and W , living in Kent. We do quite often travel to see friends in West Sussex and Hampshire, and I do my utmost to avoid having to meet in a H and W pub, as I find the beer depressingly dull. A great pity, as a lot of the pubs are gems, and I generally like beer from the (smaller) regionals.
There is a new Brewery in Preston called Arkwrights. Is there something that someone on here isn't telling us about?
Tried a drop of Wharfebank Camfell Flame yesterday at the Harrogate Beer Festival, an excellent malty beer which makes a bit of a change from all the hoppy golden ales so popular in these parts.
Putney Bricklayers had Cam Fell at their Yorkshire beerfest yesterday but I went for Slingers Gold from the same (very) new brewery. Amongst others...
Pleased to see they eased back slightly from a pricing policy which was getting ott at this award winning pub - generally £3/£3.20 rather than the £3.20-£3.60 which has previously been the case. Not that I'm advocating that as a good price, but this is SW Laaarnden!
