I've done brewery tours in the US, Ireland, and England and the Fullers tour is really good. The…read moreguide we had (Lisa) was knowledgeable, had been with the company a long time, and had a great personality for the tour. She was alternately friendly, funny, and informative. The tour was organised around the four main ingredients of beer (barley, water, hops, and yeast) and it showed the old way and new way of brewing at each stage. Often you see an old copper and brick version and then you see the new, computerised and stainless steel version. Lots of the photo opportunities are in pretty poor light. If you bring a camera, be sure to be ready for dim indoor lighting. On the up side, you see a real working brewery doing its thing. You really do sometimes step out of the way so someone can walk by and keep doing his job. On the down side, this means they generally only do tours during business hours. Skive off work one afternoon, though. It's worth it. Parking near the brewery is limited, so be sure to allow yourself some time to find a spot. There's ample pay-and-display parking, but it's a lot of twisty turny streets in there. I'm not sure how easy it is to get to this on public transport. We drove. That's a shame, because somebody's not getting the full experience. The tastings at the end were generous and we got to sample lots of different beers. I had only really had the London Pride and Honeydew before the tour. I'll be watching for the Jack Frost Christmas ale and Chiswick Ale now.

Joh Evers was our guide for a wonderfully informative tour and tasting…read more Had to stop here during my trip to London as it is the oldest brewery in London and also still family owned. The tour was a standard soup to nuts of the brewing process but it was throughout an old brewery with many of the "old" brewing containers on display. Tour ended with a tasting and the only problem was that there were too many choices (cask and keg) to choose from. Definitely recommend this brewery tour for all my hops heads

This place is a bit off the beaten path - Piccadilly line to Boston Manor, then either a 20min walk…read moreor 25min bus+walk. The place itself is in the classic industrial estate brewery model. There's little in the way of amenities, but plenty of beer on tap and in bottles. Great range, as you would hope to see at a brewery. A few food options for nibbling. Not a lot of space to sit on chairs/benches (read: stacked pallets) but on my visit lots of people were content to sit on a curb outside. The prices are fair, the staff friendly. Probably a fun option if you are a local, but for anyone coming from Central London a visit here is a real journey. Still, worth popping by sometime. N.B. this place only has occasional opening hours. Check the brewery's Twitter feed for the next open day.

Kid friendly but no kids menu…read more My wife, daughter and I were walking the Camden Market and were looking for food. I had been drinking Camden Hells Lager since I've been in the UK, so when we saw the Camden Town Brewery, we decided to stop and get a bit to eat. It is in a great spot, right on the Camden Locks, in the heart of the Camden Market. It isn't much to look at once you walk in, pretty standard. Same goes for the cocktail offering. The cocktails on their cocktail menu mostly contained Beefeater Gin, but they were out of Beefeater Gin and said they couldn't substitute for one of the other Gins they had in the wall, which was quite a few, so that was disappointing. We were a little worried there wasn't a kids menu but we got the Cotswold fried chicken, without hot sauce and it was incredible. My wife and I shared the fish and chips and it was very good as well. We were a little underwhelmed when we walked in but were very satisfied and pleased with the food. We would comeback for the ambiance but definitely would for the food.

"Where there's life there's hope...and need of vittles." - The Lord of the Rings…read more Hells Lager, a cross between Helles and Pilsner with malt and hops and brewed in Camden - a smooth, clear beer from Camden Town Brewery. Frankly, I didn't know much about this brand until I sat down for lunch at an English pub in SOHO, London. I requested something on tap that was local and Anna (bartender) suggested I start with Camden Town Hells Lager. I smartly took her advice! Camden Town Brewery founded in 2010, isn't as ancient as other breweries in the UK, but what it lacks in centuries, it makes up with "Gimli" pedigree. The founder Jasper Cuppaidge is the grandson of Laurie McLaughlin, who ran McLaughlin's Brewery in Rockhampton, Australia from 1910-1960, along with an estate of 60 pubs. Story goes when Jasper was in his 20's, this in the 1990's, he missed his flight back from London to Australia. Long story short, he ended up staying in London, started from scratch, and ended up brewing his own beer. It was a hit and became the foundation of Camden Town Brewery! So Anna suggested the Camden Town Hells Lager (4.6%) to go with my English pub lunch, and from first sip to last drop, it was smooth as "Arwen's" lips! I can see why It won numerous awards, such as Champion Keg Lager at the International Brewing Awards and bronze at the European Beer Star. This is the real deal lads! I have yet to try the other brews that the Brewery pours, like the Gentleman's Wit, IHL Lager, Pale Ale, or a seasonal brew. In the end, I had a lovely lunch in London, and Camden Town Brewery made it that much lovelier! Go with the Hells Lager and I promise you a magical "Gandalf" experience! Gurth 'ni yrch! Three Cheers to Jasper! Ta!

There's also a small warehouse of Fullers beer along with a very large selection of wines to choose from. If you can't find what you're looking for here, you probably just don't drink the right kind of alcohol. :-) And since it's at Fullers Brewery, why not go on a tour while you're there (I didn't, but I'd like to sometime!).

The Battersea area is just a cool area! To understand it you got to know a little history.
