BrewDog company that has a net of 70 bars worldwide famous for its craft beer has opened its first bar in London that accept Bitcoin (Bitcoin: BITCOIN) and Bitcoin Cash (EXANTE: BCH.EXANTE) cryptocurrencies as means of payments today. This will be the second “cash-not-accepted” bar after the one the company has in Clerkenwell region.

One of the most well-established brewery companies in the UK, Brewdog has chosen the financial district of Canary Wharf for a new location. Recognizing the surrounding neighborhood, the pub offers a special line in the menu: a draft beer with a price that depends on the movement of the Financial Times Stock Exchange 100 Index (FTSE 100).
