Several branch members volunteered to serve at various sessions of Harvey’s first beer festival in the recently adapted brewery yard. The opportunity was taken to present the brewery with two awards, for Prince of Denmark which was beer of the festival at Eastbourne 2021 and for Porter which was the branch Sussex Beer of the Year, by achieving the highest average NBSS score for beers brewed in the county across 2020 and 2021. Things were toned down somewhat at the festival out of respect for the mourning of the late Queen, so it was decided to have a quiet presentation in line with that, with just a few words spoken by Peter Adams, the Branch Chair who offered congratulations and some explanation and a reply from Miles Jenner, Head Brewer and Joint Managing Director of the brewery who was pleased by and grateful for the awards. The two are shown in the picture with the awards.
