Anyone up to create a new East Dulwich Brewery?

[James Barber]

We used to locally have Clarkshaws until they moved to Brixton.

Wouldn?t it be great to have a new local East Dulwich Brewery?

Any takers to make this happen?

I'll buy the first half dozens cases...

Clarkshaws moved because the rent was considerably cheaper for their railway arch in Loughborough Junction than for their former unit on Tyrrell Trading Estate. The small brewery model in London seems to be closeley tied in with using relatively cheap railway arch premises ? something ED is lacking. So unless there's cheap rent, it's not going to happen, unfortunately.

The Grove Tavern has plenty of room for an attached brewery...if we win the lottery tonight might look into that...

I may well be interested in this James.. Are you looking for people to fund the project.

I could help with that..

Sounds like an interesting proposal.

Fox Ale.. Like the sound of that..

You're such a hipster fox

[numbers]

But why would anyone buy beer from a local brewery when it's much cheaper to make it at home etc etc...?

It's just water & hops FGS. Nowt to it. Half the time you're just paying for the trendy label & the fact it's "locally sourced". A ridiculous idea for trendy newcomer show-off types who will pay anything just to look cool!!!!

This is not the ED I remember.

If it's so easy and cheap then why don't you start your own microbrewery? You could clean up by flogging your own brand of hops and water to all us gullible mugs.
