Here you’ll find a range of fantastic pubs that specialise in traditional beers, so taking a tour of the following establishments could prove a great way to spend a weekend.

Named Wapping, in honour of the street that it is located on, trying the house bitter here gives you the chance to sample a dry, hoppy-tasting and flavoursome ale, with Summer Ale and Baltic Gold among the other beers on offer. In addition to the extensive draught range, you’ll find dozens of international bottled beers to taste. A fantastic choice of ales can also be found at Thomas Rigby’s.
