Royals Visit London's Beer Mile & Lifeboat Stations

0:00It's March 12. Here's your entertainment news in two minutes. Prince William and Princess Catherine wrapped up their visit to London by heading to the Royal National Life Boats Institution Tower Station on the River Thames. The couple suited up in yellow jackets, life vests, and caps before taking a speedy ride past the Tower of London. They stopped by one of four lifeboat stations along the river to spotlight the life-saving crews. Earlier that morning, the pair explored the Burmese beer mile in Southwark after touring burrow market. This two-mile trail features over 20 independent breweries, tap rooms, and bottle shops. Southwark has been a brewing hub since the 17th century, with the craft beer boom kicking off in 2009 thanks to spots like the Colonel Brewery. The royals met station manager Kevin Maynard and crew members who pulled 12 hour shifts around the clock. They also chatted with R&L I lifeguards, gearing up for the Oxford Cambridge University boat race on April 4.

1:00The visit highlighted the non-stop readiness of these volunteer teams. Their first beer mile stop was Southward Brewing Company, started in 2014 by Peter Jackson from a garage homebrew setup. It now runs a 10-barrel system and a popular tap room. Next, they hit football beer hall, the latest from female-owned Hiver beers, which uses only British ingredients like honey from UK beekeepers. These outing shine a light on London's community gems, from vital rescue services to thriving local craft scenes. Officials say the Royal Attention Boost Awareness for both the R&L I's critical work and Southwark's brewing heritage. The daily news now is powered by our sponsor, Link in the Description.
