Closed brewery
Wood Green N22 (Haringey)
greywoodbrewery.co.uk
First sold beer: March 2020
Ceased brewing: by end 2021
Designer and beekeeper Adam Armstrong had been a keen homebrewer for several years when the management at his local pub suggested he make a commercial brew for them. The result was this part-time home-based brewery working in 1.5 hl batches.
Following a successful first brew, activities were suspended during the lockdown but briefly revived in 2021. By the end of that year, however, Adam had given up his brewing license. He’s continuing as a homebrewer and may revive commercial brewing at some stage if market conditions improve.
The name is from a possible derivation of the place name Haringey: ‘enclosure in the grey wood’ (though a more likely etymology is ‘Hering’s enclosure’, from a personal name).
Beers were in cask, sold through local pubs.
