First sold beer: 18 January 2020
suspended: by June 2023

After many years setting up and operating beer-friendly for other companies, Ash Zobell and brothers Pete and James Brew refurbished and reopened this pub in a Brentford backstreet conservation area in October 2018. The intention was always to operate as a brewpub, and a small brewery with a 1.6 hl kit finally went into production in an shed in the back garden early in 2020.

Opened in 1868 and originally known as the Albany Arms, the pub was rebuilt by Brentford’s now-closed Royal Brewery in 1901. Following a recent troubled history, it was closed for over two years before its current award-winning rejuvenation. Pete was previously involved in setting up Big Smoke, since moved outside London.

Pete Brew in Fearless Nomad’s petite brewhouse.

was suspended by summer 2023 with no decision yet on its long-term future. The pub meanwhile remains fully open.

Beers in keg and cask were exclusively sold in the pub.
