Blackhorse Beer Mile

Stroll along the Blackhorse Beer Mile in Walthamstow, home to breweries, wine producers and taprooms.

Try the buzzing taprooms of Exale, Signature Brew, 40ft Brewery, East End Brewing Co and Hackney Church Brew Co. Many of the breweries also offer live music and food, so no need to leave your seat to have a good evening.

Big Penny Social is a huge space which combines a beer hall with a sunny beer garden, while Pretty Decent Beer Co sits in a spacious warehouse decorated with twinkling lights and colourful murals.

It’s not just about the beer. Renegade Urban Winery makes and sells wines, each sporting a quirky label which shows the eyes of a different person who lives in the UK. For something a little different, try the bold flavours of an English brandy from Burnt Faith’s Brandy House, the UK’s first dedicated brandy distillery.
