📣 (re) introducing A Hoi! Our sixth (we can’t believe we’re in the last half of this project) from our Ten Beers for Ten Years.

We promise it did go on tap in July! Just a little late posting about it.

🍻 A Vietnamese style lager - utilising rice in the mash process. Which gives the beer itself a dry and crisp profile, and a much lighter body than a pilsner.
The use of rice in brewing is not new, added by Japanese Brewers out of necessity due to limited barley availability.

☀️ it’s the perfect pint for summer, pouring now at our Penge Taproom.

See you at the bar.

📣 (re) introducing Flashman’s Pale!
The fifth beer from our Ten Beers for Ten Years Project and the very first on cask!

🗓️ firstly, we know it’s July, and we’re sorry it’s late! Turns out planning & hosting a Beer & Music Festival takes up a fair amount of time. So today is June 37th…

🍻 This recipe is deep from the Southey archives… Named after Mr Lawrence’s restaurant - Flashman’s - that he owned and operated in the late 1980s in Dulwich.

However the recipe is older than that! Based off a Fuller’s recipe from the 1940s. Maize & extra sugar, in our case Golden Syrup is used to boost the alcohol content when ingredients were scarce due to rationing (and war)…

The use of additional sugars elevates the dryness of the beer on the palate. Expect a perfectly light and quaffable pale ale 🍺

🗓️ Pouring now at our Penge Taproom.

Penge, you absolute beauties. ❤️

What a day.

Hopstock 2026 was packed with music, smiles, dancing, singing, sunshine, great beer and an incredible amount of love for Southey and for this community we’re lucky enough to call home.

Ten years ago we started brewing beer in Penge. On Saturday, it felt like the whole place came out to celebrate with us.

We're still processing it all. There’s plenty to learn from if we decide to do it again, but that can wait for another day. Right now, we’re just enjoying these wonderful photos from and reliving a day we’ll never forget.

Have a scroll through. If you spot yourself, give us a wave in the comments 👋

Thank you, Penge. You’re a special bunch.

This is Adam. Adam is in Royston Field. Adam is in Royston Field, stood in the spot where the main stage will be and where he will be performing on Saturday at Hopstock.

We're almost ready for a full day of live music, great beer, local food and community celebration as we mark 10 years of Southey Brewing Co. in Penge.

Still on the fence? Here's the thing: you don't need to commit to a whole day. We've even released half-price tickets for entry from 4pm so you can catch the evening atmosphere, grab a beer, see Adam (and Absolute Bowie headline!) and be part of the party.
Tickets are available right up until the event (subject to capacity), but we'd love to know you're coming.

Saturday. Sunshine. Music. Beer. Penge.

🎶 THE HOPSTOCK MUSIC SCHEDULE IS HERE 🎶
After months of planning, countless emails, and more spreadsheets than we'd care to admit, here is it: the soundtrack to Hopstock 2026.

From midday right through to closing the show, we've packed two stages with brilliant local talent, festival bangers and a few acts we think you'll be talking about long after the last pint has been poured.

The Main Stage will be expertly steered by the wonderful once more, while the Park Stage offers a slightly more laid-back soundtrack for those looking to kick back with a beer in the sunshine.

Have a look through the schedule and start plotting your day,!

ONE WEEK TO GO ❤️

Ten years ago, we brewed our first batch of beer in Penge.

We never imagined that a decade later we'd still be here, pouring pints, putting on events and celebrating alongside this incredible community.

Every beer you've bought.
Every friend you've brought along.
Every event you've attended.
Every recommendation you've made.

You've helped make Southey what it is today.

So next Saturday isn't just another festival.
It's our chance to say thank you.

Thank you for supporting local.
Thank you for supporting independent.

The forecast is looking beautiful, the beer is ready, and we're preparing for the biggest party we've ever thrown.

Morning

On Wednesday I’ll be heading down to London for a few days, and my first day will be spent exploring Selsdon, Addiscombe, Beckenham, Penge, Anerley and Gipsy Hill. These areas offer a fascinating mix of suburban London life, with Beckenham known for its attractive high street and links to David Bowie, Penge for its Victorian history and proximity to Crystal Palace, and Gipsy Hill for its impressive views across the capital.

I’ll be visiting a number of micropubs and pubs throughout the day to see what the area has to offer.

If I’m planning to pop in and visit you, I’d really appreciate a share of this post — and if you see me out and about, feel free to come and say hello!
