A nice shop with an alright selection of beers. As other people have mentioned - good for Kernel. Staff are friendly and helpful - they certainly know their wine and the senior guys know about the beer as well. Worth going in if you are in the area!

If you dare venture East this place is well worth a stop. CBC is a decent sized liquor shop that has a wide range of wine, champagne and spirits. The beer is located opposite the till. The highlight of the range is a pretty large (8 last time I was there) Kernel selection, as well as Redchurch, Brewdog, Oakham and Powerhouse. The guys that work there are friendly, but not particularly knowledgeable about beer. Worth a visit for Kernel range alone!

Surprised to find this place. Real gem in east london. Not a massive amount of beers but what they have is mostly microbreweries so great quality stuff. Also lots good wines. Well this is more of a wineshop.

A solid bottle shop. The wine selection is clearly their focus but they do stock a number of nice beers, especially from The Kernel and Pitfield. The last few times I’ve been in here they’ve had around five to ten different beers from The Kernel - very convenient if you can’t get down to the brewery on Saturdays. CBC also has some interesting American beers, a handful of Belgians, and some other British stuff. The staff is pretty average I guess and the store itself is just fine. Definitely worth stopping in here to see what’s in stock.

If you find yourself in shoreditch, in need of proper beer, this is the spot. One of the few retail places that stocks the full range of Pitfields Ales. Has a decent rotating selection of belgians and british ales as well as some american craft beer (on my last they had the flying dog IPA and goose island IPA). In light of that I’m willing to forgive the fact that about 2/3s of the place is full of wine. Nice array of snacks and sundries as well.
