They have chairs and tables on the street outside now. And the inside looks nearly finished.

One on one? You're crazy.
When I spoke to Yll, the landlord, he said he told the contractors the opening night was last week, to make them work quicker

When I looked yesterday there were no labels on the pumps...hopefully they have remedied that by now!

These guys know their stuff. They are fanatical about ale.

The only thing I've grumbled about in this bit of Brixton was the total lack of anywhere to go for either food or a drink. This looks like it will fill this hole nicely, plus if that pub is going to be busier and more bustling, that block shouldn't be so lecherously unpleasant to walk past at night. Can't wait to try it...

Looking great! Some really good beers on too, I see they've got Big Chief (the triangular badge with the red writing, it's my neighbours, Redemption Brewery) which is amazing, and the Kernel who are unbeatable, very rare to have any of Evin's beer on draught in a pub. Save me some!

Pleasant and unpatronising
football screens or no football screens - photos suggest the latter?

That's very good to hear.
'Fraid I'm not allowed more than the occasional pint these days, but when I did drink it regularly, I usually found the best pints were to be had in pubs which kept just one or two beers, and that those with a big range of cask-conditioned ales often served up indifferent pints. The problem is that you've only got a day or two after a cask has dropped bright to sell it at its best.
I'll definitely pop up there for a pint soon though, even though I won't be able to make a habit of it.

One of the owners can recognise individual types of hops. He gets excited if you show him a picture of hops. That's the level of fanaticism we're talking about here.
