Hackney Brewery was founded in 2011 by Peter Hills and Jon Swain, in a couple of Hackney Railway arches.
Towards the end of 2020, they ran a Crowdfunder, which successfully raised almost £50,000 to fund the development of a new brewery and taproom just up the road in Walthamstow, which is due to open very soon!
Hackney Brewery is extremely environmentally conscious, using exclusively green energy, paying all staff a living wage, and with a passionate focus on recycling at every stage of the business.
