In 1814, a catastrophic industrial accident sent a deadly tidal wave of beer through the streets of London. A massive vat at the Meux & Co. Brewery burst, unleashing over 1.4 million liters of beer in a flood that destroyed homes, demolished a pub, and tragically claimed eight lives.
In this episode of Dark History, we uncover the full story of the Great London Beer Flood, from the brewery’s structural failures to the harrowing aftermath. How did poor working-class communities bear the brunt of this disaster? Why did no one face legal consequences? And how did the public react to a flood of free beer turning into a scene of devastation?
Join us as we explore the engineering failures, human cost, and eerie echoes of similar disasters throughout history. This is one of London’s strangest—and deadliest—industrial tragedies.
