A quick update for you. Last night we tested the elements in the copper, checked the water tightness of the kettle and FV1.
All was good.
All that is left to test are the elements in the HLT and get some electrics run across the Unit and we will be in a position where we can brew some beer.
Just one more thing … well, two really … I need to build a steam condenser for the copper and a grist hydrator.
Saturday saw us heading out at 6am to go and get set up for the London Brewer’s Market at Old Spitalfields. We were all set up by 9.30 and had time to get some nice photos. It was very exciting for us to sell directly to the customers and get their feedback directly. Also there was fantastic music provided by a great DJ line-up throughout the day.
This was only the second outing for our Bermondsey Abbey Sour, and the first for our brand new Willoughby Stout. The Sour was the only sour I saw at the market and had a number of repeat customers, the feedback we received was very positive and I now have to rush off and recreate this on a larger scale.
With temperatures hitting 30+ under the glass canopy, our Holy Smoke was a winner. At 2.9% it was refreshing from the pint or bottle and allowed a break from the stronger IPAs, DIPAs, and 7% sour on offer. We were run off our feet and didn’t really get a chance to go and explore the other 26 breweries’ offerings.
Hope to see you all again next time and thank you to The Five Points Brewing Company for organising the event, and Old Spitalfields for hosting us.
We will be at the London Brewers Market at Old Spitalfields Market this Saturday 23 July, from 11am – 6.30pm.
We have been furiously brewing in between setting up the new site in Edmonton, we are going to be bringing you a few new beers and a couple of trusted favourites. Also we hope have some new t-shirts for all those looking to refresh their wardrobe this season.
