London CBG showed up tonight - for each other, for the beer, and for The Blue Maid. 🍻💛

New(ish) pub, brilliant hosts, big laughs, and plenty of heart. That’s the magic of CBG: you come for the beer, but you stay for the people. 🌟

London’s August CBG had all the summer magic. ✨🍻

Started at the brand-new The Stranded for perfect Czech pours (Budvar Dark = a roasty hug 🇨🇿), then strolled through golden hour to The Harp for Tartarus Red Ale, keg treats & easy chats. 💬

Second stop on the @craftybeergirls.bsky.social night out was The Harp

Great little pub with some great craft beers on cask

I love going out with these amazing beer loving ladies. Always a good night out 🥰

#BskyBeer #CraftBeer #BeerSky

#CraftyBeerGirls #WomenWhoBeer #LondonBeer

We took over the back of the pub. We looked (accidentally?) like the London chapter of the Pink Boots Society...A lot of us wore cowboy boots. We told great stories and drank even better beer.

Here’s to good pubs, good pours, and excellent company. 🧡🍻

Then we wandered—
To The Pocket, a tiny jewel of a pub with a shining cask list and conversation flowing freer than the taps. 🍺✨

Star pour of the night?
Pomona Island’s “The Crazy World Of A Half” – a rich, balanced American Brown embraced by many.

We started at The Lamb, where the beer was cold, the welcome warm, and the glitter wall glowed behind us. A round table turned sacred as stories and laughter echoed through the room.

A tale of two pubs, a glitter wall, and over a dozen dazzling women. 👭💛

Our June London meetup was full of golden light, big laughs, and beautifully poured beer. Here’s how it went… 🧵👇

😂 He was watching us approach the door and then take photos of the entrance with some bewilderment, yes!

Such a joy to share good conversation, great beer, and excellent company. Thanks to everyone who joined us and to the venues for the warm welcome.

Next London meetup: second week of June. Come along!

Then, we strolled to Kernel’s Spa Road Taproom for beautifully brewed beers and delicious Japanese-inspired plates. We also got to try the just-released single hop Krush beers — Spring Pale Ale was a standout!

Wednesday night beers with the gals!

Our May #CraftyBeerGirls meetup took us to two lovely SE1 spots as the sun went down, starting at the cosy new Hand & Marigold in Bermondsey for proper cask ales and charm.
