First sold beer: 31 October 2018
Brewing suspended: by December 2024
Perhaps not the most obvious place you’d expect to find an in-house brewery, Greenwich institution Up the Creek is a comedy club in a former church hall founded by the late comedian Malcolm Hardee in 1991. But the owner is a keen beer fan, and a neat 4 hl brewhouse, clearly visible from the street, was installed in October 2018. Originally branded Greenwich Brewery, the beers have simply carried the name of the venue since 2020.
There have been some lapses in production, when brewers moved on in 2019 and during the Covid-19 lockdowns. The brewhouse was active during 2021 but was suspended again by December 2025.
Beers have nearly all been in cask, with small scale hand-bottling, and sold exclusively in house except for the occasional festival. Note that the bar may only be open to event ticket holders.
