Our Story
Anspach & Hobday was founded in 2012 by Jack Hobday & Paul
Anspach. The two of us have known each other since childhood
and were flatmates whilst we both studied in London. It was after
a recommendation to brew by a University lecturer (the esteemed
Dr. Keith Langley of UCL) that our brewing journey first began.
Trading since 2014 from Bermondsey we are best known for The
Porter - our first successful homebrew and our most decorated
beer.
In 2014, with the kickstarter funds invested into our first commercial
kit we re-entered the IBC and won Gold.
To date, we have sold over 790,000 pints. Growing from a 100 Litre-
per-batch kit to our current 1400 litre. Yet, Anspach & Hobday is
still a relatively small brewery, albeit with great potential.
Since 2014 our team has grown from the two of us to eight The Co-founders
members. And the volume, variety and acclaim of our beers has Jack Hobday (left) & Paul Anspach (right)
grown too.

and The Sea Salt and Chili stout - the perfect accompaniment for
oysters.

collaboration beers (Collabs) Include: The ESB with Fullers, The
Red Wine Stout with Dugges, The Story Saison with Restaurant
Story, The Black Citra Sour with Thy Art is Murder

Production
New Site Location
We are looking into industrial spaces within the M25 for our new
production site. We plan to stay south of the River Thames. Lead
locations include: Greenwich, Lewisham, Deptford and Croydon. We
want to remain a London brewery and it goes beyond ideals - staying
within the Thames Water area will keep a similar water profile allowing
us to maintain the flavour of our beer whether it is made in Deptford
or Bermondsey.
Packaging Formats:
We will continue to offer, kegs, KeyKegs, casks in large pack beer and
through investment in packaging equipment our small pack will move
towards big bottles and cans.

The Taproom
If you have ever visited us you will know that the Anspach &
Hobday taproom is the best place to enjoy our beer.
No doubt if you drop by druing the week from time to time you
will still see some hand bottling going on for the most special
beers.

The Pigeon
Our retail expansion does not stop at The Taproom. We have taken an
opportunity to build and run a pop-up bar in Camberwell which we
have called The Pigeon.
With six lines of A&H beer, guest beers, wines and gin this is an
opportunity for us to showcase an example of a dedicated A&H retail
outlet in a prime location on Camberwell Church St. It is near the
Stormbird, a pub that has long stood out for its craft credentials.
The pop-up will run at least until January with prospects to go much
further, and is open Wednesday - Sunday. We hope you will get a
chance to visit and that it can give you an idea of what we can achieve
both at a revamped A&H taproom in Druid Street and in our bars and
pubs of the future.
The other key benefit that as it is exclusively our residency we are able
to make the site our own, albeit on a budget. We hope you get a chance
to come visit The Pigeon soon!

**The Pigeon’s cost of sales includes the % of Revenue paid to the leaseholder as part of the pop-up bar agreement. This % revenue covers all overheads except for staff and
waste disposal: this is why the Administration expense for The Pigeon is relatively small compared to The Taproom.
