Pride Drinks With Purpose

This Pride month, we’re raising a glass to community, celebration and support at Two Brewers Clapham. Throughout June, every sip of selected drinks helps support Stonewall Housing, helping LGBTQ+ people find safety, support and somewhere to call home.

Order one of our Pride drinks and cheers to something bigger:
🍹 Enjoy a refreshing Smirnoff Miami Peach & Lemonade or Smirnoff Raspberry Crush & Lemonade, with 50p donated to Stonewall Housing for every drink purchased throughout June.
🍺 Or go crisp, cold and proudly colourful with Portobello Brewing’s Rainbow Pilsner with 10p donated and Polari Pale, with 20p donated to Stonewall Housing from every pint sold.

Great drinks. Good vibes. Even better reasons to head to the bar.
