🍎 @realal.co (that’s AL, by the way) has a simply lovely mission: to bring the tastes of countryside cider into London.

It’s a real passion for Al, Ish and the team, but boy, is it ever hard work. 🍏

🍏 They work with a network of micro-producers dotted all over the countryside. Between warehouse operations, marketing, and communicating with their drivers, it’s a complex operation.

Apron powers the pour by taking the pressure off of supplier payments and books. But the real win for Real Al is Apron Card. 🍎

With drivers out and about all the time, having an expense card the team can control from HQ is a must. 🍐

A proper London pub doing things properly. 🍻

Meet The Steam Engine, the kind of pub where you can settle in for a proper pint, a good old chat and probably stay a little longer than planned. 👀

We love working with independent pubs like this, places with plenty of character, good people behind the bar and a real community at their heart.

So if you’re nearby, pop in, grab yourself a drink of @crafty_blends Apple Cider and support your local. 🍺

We’ll see you at the bar!

Stay tuned for some REAL AL’E FACTS this week

Happy Cask Ale Week! 🍺

Castle Rock on cask! 🍻

We’ve got a cracking range from the Nottingham legends at Castle Rock Brewery, with plenty of proper cask beer ready for your venue.

With roots firmly in cask brewing, Castle Rock are all about flavourful, characterful beers, from traditional East Midlands bitters to modern hoppy pales.

HARVEST PALE
3.8% | Blonde Ale
Refreshing and bright. A proper easy drinking pale and one of Castle Rock’s multi award winning classics.

ELSIE MO
4.7% | Golden Ale
A single malt ale with a lovely golden hue. Elsie Mo has a delicate citrus aroma and floral taste.

PRESERVATION
4.4% | Best Bitter
A traditional East Midlands style bitter with sweet, malty character for an easy-drinking full flavoured bitter.

OUR HOUSE
3.4% | extra Pale Ale
Delicate and refreshing with subtle notes of tropical fruit, citrus and pine. A beautifully  soft  mouthfeel and a satisfying crisp finish.

FIT TO FLY
4.1% | Stout
World famous Scottish teacakes re-imagined as a stout. Fluffy marshmallow, subtle biscuit and hints of glossy
chocolate.

Fancy putting some Castle Rock on your bar? Drop the team an email, find us on Breww or just send us a message!

Love it when these two get together! 🍸 (Taken pre-pregnancy 😉)

One of the best things about the @ravenswoodcollective is the community of owners we have around us. Siobhan from @mothersruine17 is a fellow female founder, just like us, and we’re proud to call her a pal!

Taking on the chaos of the estate day by day, supporting each other and having a bloody good time along the way.

So support your local, head over to @mothersruine17 for some seriously delicious cocktails and even tastier gin. 🍸

Date for the diary when we're both next open - Saturday 19th October Real Al will be opening our doors for a special community project, so come and have a pint.

THREE NEIGHBOURHOODS. ONE NEW TRAIL 👣

The Walthamstow Way has landed, linking Walthamstow Village, the Ravenswood Industrial Estate and Wood Street into one proper trail worth exploring.

📅 Saturday 19th & Sunday 20th September
⏰ 12pm until late
🎶 Music, activities, walking tours, Open House Festival and more

It's all about celebrating what makes each part of E17 tick — the character, the stories, the independent spirit. Funded by the @mayorofldn Summer Streets fund, it's also brought around 200 extra outdoor covers to businesses on Orford Road, Wood Street and Trouville Square, new festoon lighting for the Ravenswood Industrial Estate, and wayfinding to tie it all together.

Developed by @lbwalthamforest with local businesses and groups including @v17walthamstow, @wearewoodstreet and @ravenswoodcollective. We're proud to be part of it.
