New blow to Walthamstow 'beer mile' as brewery announces bar closure after council rent battle

More businesses at risk as cash-strapped local authority calls in debts



Hackney Brewery & High Hill Tap, a brewery on Walthamstow's "beer mile," is closing its tap room due to a rent dispute with Waltham Forest council. The council's "hardline approach" to recovering commercial debts, amid budget cuts, is forcing the closure despite the brewery's attempts to resolve the issue. This closure follows previous shutdowns of Wild Card brewery and Beerblefish, raising concerns for other businesses on the beer mile.
