The History of The Beer Shop
'The Beer Shop' was founded in 1980 in Pitfield Street London N1 and started selling beer from the real ale revival. A five barrel (180 gallon) brewery was installed and the first brew produced was 'Pitfield Bitter'.
The brewery was successful and other beers were produced. 'Dark Star' was introduced in 1985 and in 1987 won the title of 'Best New Beer' and came runner up in 'The Champion Beer of Britain.' The following year (1988) it was awarded 'The Supreme Champion Beer of Britain.' It has now been
renamed 'Black Eagle'.
In the summer of 1996 'The Beer Shop' moved into larger premises, further up Pitfield Street. The 'Pitfield Brewery' in one shop and 'The Beer shop' next door.
Due to changes to our lease and problems with customers being unable to park due to parking restrictions, we decided to relocate the Pitfield Brewery and run the Beer Shop as an online store delivering direct to your door.
