The Wild Card Brewery Barrel Store

"A microbrewery, in a warehouse, in a car park… leave some east London for the rest of us, Wild Card. There are some seats inside the Walthamstow taproom but it’s nicer to sit out in the sun, on the large sharing tables. Grab a spot looking towards the brewery unless you want to stare at a fleet of Ford transit vans. Wild Card is particularly good for big group meet-ups, great merch, and fans of New England-style IPA (although they do a bunch of pale ales and sours too). " - Sinéad Cranna

"Walthamstow’s Wild Card do easily one of the best IPAs in the capital, and on (almost) any given Saturday, this amber spicy caramel number is right here, flowing from the taps. Bear in mind this is no massive operation, so quantity isn’t oceanic, but there’s a certain consistency that resonates throughout their five core beers." - Hugh Thomas
