One of my favourite beers whilst in Chicago were the Goose Island brewskies, particularly the Summertime beers. I’ve been searching for a place that sold them for sometime in London, with my first encounter at Fulham’s White Horse pub.
Fortunately Borough Market helped me find another source of these wonderful beers. I stopped by the beer stall nearest to Brindisa and The Ginger Pig, which had a huge selection of beers from around the world. As I walked up to the counter to ask the assistant about Goose Island beers, the wide assortment of six packs sitting under the counter caught my eyes. Success! They only sell it here on weekends although it’s always available in their pub, The Rake just minutes away. The six packs vary between £10-£12.
When I passed through town in December I was at the Crown on Clerkenwell Green and they had a surprising number of international beers. I can’t remember if Goose Island was one of them but they certainly had Sierra Nevada and Coopers if you’re feeling homesick. 🙂
