Brewery taproom

Opened to the public in December 2017, Urban Island's brewery tap room is located a short distance from Hilsea station. Surprisingly spacious, the room is divided into three drinking areas, with furniture consisting of a mixture of trestle table and benches, chipboard-backed bench seating with table fashioned from a shipping pallet and cask stools arranged around an oil-drum table. Visitors are surrounded by an array of gleaming, stainless steel Brewing vessels. The bar counter can be found towards the rear, from where up to 7 cask and KeyKeg ales are offered. Those available are detailed on a board at the servery. Outdoor drinking is available in the warmer seasons.

Locally produced real cider is available.

The Brewery is also reachable via a footpath leading from the Hilsea Lines battlements.

Takeouts of all cask & keg beers currently on tap are available.

Opening hours may vary. Check website or Facebook page for changes.

Information for this venue is provided by the Portsmouth & South East Hampshire Branch of CAMRA
