Run by German Kraft Brewery, this 500L Dalston Brewery (fondly known as the ‘brewhouse’) by Zip Technologies is an integral part of the hotel. Located next to the restaurant on the lower ground floor it gives the guests an insight into beer production and everyday work that goes on in an urban craft brewery in the heart of Dalston in the Borough of Hackney in East London.
Staying true to their ethos, German Kraft brews and serves all their beer on site offering you unfiltered, unpasteurised, beer served fresh from the tank. The brewery also reduces their CO2 emissions by 75% compared to the average brewery by eliminating packaging and transportation. All beers are made according to the purity law from 1516 only using malt, water, hops & yeast.
We also run tours of our Kraft Dalston Brewery. These are perfect for passionate beer drinkers as well as curious novices
