Villages Brewery

Villages Brewery operates from railway arches on Resolution Way in Deptford, set up at the end of 2016 by brothers Archie and Louis Village. The core range covers a pale ale called Rodeo and a session IPA called Rafiki, both produced in keg and can, with seasonal and one-off collaboration brews added through the year. All beers are made without animal-derived finings, a point the brewery states plainly on its cans rather than treating as a marketing angle. The taproom opens Thursday to Sunday, drawing a mixed crowd of brewery regulars and passers-by exploring the wider Deptford arches. Beer can be bought to drink on site or taken away in cans, and the brewery continues to supply bars and shops across London from this single production site.
