Gosnells

The wildcard. Gosnells makes mead, not beer, and if your only reference point for mead is a medieval fair, you're going to be surprised. Tom Gosnell founded the company in Peckham in 2013 and opened this Bermondsey taproom in September 2022. Everything is brewed with British blossom honey — no refined sugars — and the results are closer to a dry cider or a natural wine than to anything you'd associate with a tankard. Try the hopped variety. The taproom is small and the staff will walk you through the range if you ask, which you should, because the menu makes more sense with context.
