Brazenly not placing itself on Redchurch street (though the owner does live there), this micro's putting out a quatro of bottle-only barleypops, all of which are "live" (allowing the taste to slowly develop over time), un-pasteurized, and unfiltered, giving less shelf life, but far more taste. The styles include Bethnal Pale Ale, Shoreditch Blonde, the "rich and chocolatey" Hoxton Stout, and Hackney Gold, which in 2012 is what Hackney hoodlums will be calling "an athlete's wallet".
