If any one place has taken craft beer to its heart, it’s the borough of Hackney - so it’s only right that there’s a brewery named after the place. Hackney Brewery has come a long way since it began in 2011, moving from a fairly traditional cask-ale focus to a more catholic approach: keg, cask, can, whatever suits the beer. It’s all good, well-made stuff with the emphasis on drinkability.
