Brewery story

About Southey Brewing Co

Founded in 2016 and tucked away behind Penge High Street, Southey Brewing Co is a proudly independent microbrewery that has become a cornerstone of South East London's local beer scene. Brewing on a modest six-barrel kit, the brewery combines traditional brewing methods with a passion for quality, producing a diverse range of beers that balance classic styles with modern craft influences.

While known for its hop-forward IPAs and pale ales, Southey's brewing philosophy extends well beyond contemporary favourites. The brewery regularly explores traditional bitters, stouts, and yeast-driven Belgian and German styles, reflecting a commitment to both brewing heritage and experimentation. Every beer is brewed, packaged, and canned on site using high-quality ingredients, with all beers remaining unpasteurised and vegan.

Deeply rooted in its local community, Southey Brewing Co has served beer directly from its Penge taproom since its earliest days, while also reaching drinkers across South East London through its associated venues. Today, the brewery continues to champion independent brewing, producing fresh, characterful beers for the people of Penge and beyond.
