The Bermondsey Beer Mile is an adventure, and where you start matters. At Small Beer, we brew mid-strength beers that set the perfect pace—full of flavour, brewed for the journey. Starting here isn’t just a choice, it’s a smart decision. It’s the stop you’ll remember, for more reasons than just an outstanding quality beer.
WHY SMALL BEER?
It’s simple: Small Beer is crafted for the long haul. Our mid-strength beers give you the rich, bold flavour you want without slowing you down. Starting with us eases you in perfectly for a day of all that the Beer Mile has to offer.
THE EXPERIENCE
Our Small Beer taproom is where your Beer Mile begins, surrounded by towering fermentation vessels and with a pint of our skillfully crafted mid-strength beer in hand. Whether you choose our Lager, Pale Ale, Hazy IPA, or something darker, you’ll get a beer that is memorable for all the right reasons. Small Beer sets the tone for your entire day—sip by sip.
WHY IT WORKS
The Beer Mile is a journey, and starting at Small Beer gives you the best beginning. It delivers you big flavour at our signature mid-strength ABV, and gives your friends the opportunity to gather whilst the speaker plays classic taproom hits and you play darts or simply sit and soak in the surroundings with a crisp pint.
