Staff member Steve Law began brewing under the name for Beer + Burger on a tiny kit at the Willesden branch in 2017. Steve moved on and his role was taken by Milo Oddi. Demand expanded as the chain grew, so the beers were often contracted, to One Mile End or Hop Kettle in Swindon. The brand was dropped in 2019, though B+B continued to participate in collaboration brews exclusively stocked in the bars.

Milo launched his own cuckoo project, the Standard Brew Co, in July 2021, brewing at One Mile End. The company focuses on IPAs but pursues variety within the broad style. Besides a recurring core table IPA ideal for serving alongside food, a new recipe is sent out every month as a six-pack to subscribers, a model which helps build a community of customers in the absence of a taproom.

There’s still a link to B+B as the owners of that company are investors in Standard and their venues sometimes stock its beer in keg form. Milo has no immediate plans to add his own kit as he’s happy working as a cuckoo brewer and collaborator: a brew at 40FT is planned for the autumn 2022.

Beers are in can and keg.
