Tucked away down Rosendale Road, about an eight-minute walk from the centre of Herne Hill, you enter into the outside courtyard section with its collection of bench and barrel seating. The first half is exposed to the elements, and the second half is under a plastic clear corrugated roof. The serving area is off to the right in the first arch and as well as the small bar top has some inside wooden seating and the toilets.
Three of their own products were on the keg taps (Wolf American Pale Ale, Herne Hells Lager and Rascal Session IPA) along with a decent range of guests from the likes of Anspach and Hobday, Verdent, Sureshot and Yonder. Both the ale pumps on the bar were in operation for my visit, dispensing Burning Sky New Zealand Pale Ale and Anspach and Hobday Golden Bitter. We covered both and they were in excellent nick.
There was a pop up food concession in operation on this particular Thursday evening in the second arch to the back which also houses the brewing equipment I believe.
Like other we really enjoyed our visit here and would recommend the short walk away from the centre of Herne Hill. It is a 4.00PM opener during the week and at lunchtime on a Saturday and Sunday.

Have to say definitely the best venue of this crawl in that I feel is a genuine 6 bordering 7. Physically well described below so nothing to add on that front - unlike the palm trees and exotic plants in West Penge last night and that well known South London micro climate, this was definitely a venue that bucked the trend on global warming. It was effing freezing in spite of the fact that I sat under the cover by the bar. Won’t hold that comfort factor against the venue as I thought it was lovely and I would agree one of the nicest venues of the type that I have ever visited (lots of unrecording on here on my part so it is genuinely a big sample size). Similar amounts of tap choices as recorded below and two hand pumps operational on my visit. Sad to say I took one of those cask options and so played away - was an Only With Love option (will update when I check my notes).

Their cask beer had ran out unfortunately on our Sunday afternoon visit. Nevertheless there was a choice of 8 beers served from keg taps. So we went for their Bullfinch, Rascal Session IPA and the Bullfinch Luna. Both beers were excellent.
