No cask. Six keg options of the Wimbledon Pale, the Lacons House lager, the Bullhouse Suds, the Drop Project Drippin, the Buxton Lupulus and the Northern Monk Northern Star.

This second venue was opened late last year and is clearly a shop conversion with a plated glass front. There is a ledge with tall stools in the front window to the left of the entrance and a few small tables with regular chairs along the left-hand wall leading to the bar counter at the back of the front part of this bare boarded venue with exposed brick wall on the left-hand side and plastered painted walls on the right-hand wall housing the shelves and fridges of their canned and bottled wares. The rear part is tiled and there are a small number of bench style and regular tables. The music was pretty good in here on my visit.

A very good micropub featuring indie beer on keg,there was a warm ,chatty welcome.Craft Tooting 1 was originally in Tooting's Broadway Market but has since closed,the owners have another place in Crystal Palace where they also distill gin,which is available here.
The shop conversion uses it's space well ,there are drinking shelves,small outside tables,left sided larger tables,bar at rear and fridges to the right side,while beyond the bar there is a back room with some plastic furniture but done in a clever way and well lit for what originally was a back storeroom for the shop.The loo is here.Soundtrack was outstanding.
The barman knows his beer and had available on my trip Craft Tooting x Lacons House Lager,Glasshouse Single Hop Citra (excellent),Hackney Church Fleeced NZ IPA,Woodland Capt'n Crush,Burning Sky Just Peachy and Saint Monday Lost Saint Sour.
Quite pricey but I don't mind paying for quality and with some rather dull real ale elsewhere approaching £7 pp maybe this micro will tap into the gentrification of the area.
I was crawling Tooting but would stay much longer next time to sample output from some respected brewers and discover some up and coming names.Worth a visit,especially if you like indie beer.
