Blackthorn _ left this review about The Kernel Taproom
One of many similar establishments forming part of the famous Bermondsey Beer Mile, like many of the others this is located in the arches under the railway track, and is of course a brewery tap rather than a pub, and this is reflected in the somewhat industrial style décor, if one could go so far as calling it that.
The flooring was some type of concrete screed, whilst the usual white corrugated iron of these establishments was cladding the ceiling in order to channel the continually dripping water from the tunnel roof away from the punters underneath. That said, they had made a bit of an effort to make it a little cosier, with the walls being clad in oak woodwork and various bits of foliage hanging from the cable trays. Exposed filament light bulbs which are of course de rigour in any pub renovation these days protruded from metal conduit, whilst further seating was provided on a mezzanine level at the front of the pub.
Beer choice appeared extensive but was presumably all keg rather than cask. On this occasion the list comprised of a Table Beer, a Wheat Pale Ale, two Pale Ales, two IPA’s, Dry Stout, Export India Porter, India Double Porter, Imperial Brown Stout, Fœder Beer and three Bière de Saison’s.
