No cask. Quite a few keg options, including some decent craft choices served from the tap wall behind the bar counter. Choices were Somersby cider, Brooklyn Stonewall IPA, Guinness, Poretti lager and something called Legacy lager from the taps on the counter. From the tap wall the choices were Gipsy Hill Swell lager, Mammoth Twist, Signature Haze Machine, Small Beer Hazy IPA, Gipsy Hill Trail Pale Ale, Brooklyn Pils, Signature Studio lager and Lucky Saint.

This is a modern glass box bar in the shadow of the West Ham stadium. It closes at 6pm apart from Thurs to Sat. Modern concrete floor with the bar counter against the wall as you enter from the river side. Variety of seating in this one, mostly banquettes and tall stools or regular chairs with some modern pine tables or tall tables. There are a couple of tan leather sofas at the back with some outside seating at the front and back of the venue. The lighting was bright on my late afternoon visit when it was dark outside and so felt like the proverbial goldfish in a bowl.
