Description
Andy Hepworth started brewing in Reading almost directly after University. He moved to Horsham in 1980 and within five years became the youngest Head Brewer in the country, winning many awards.

The long-standing tradition of brewing in Horsham came to an abrupt halt in 2000 with the sale of its last brewery and so Andy, determined to maintain that tradition, joined up with the key members of the brewing team in order to create Hepworths, an independent brewery aiming to build its own range of quality brands, while maintaining flexibility for contract work.

In 2016 they relocated to their current site which they co-locate with Goodwood Brewery, Laines Brew Hub and Ridgeway Brewing sharing certain facilities but not brewplants.

Bottle from Waitrose, West Byfleet. Aroma is malty with a sour dark fruit streak. Clear brown. Foamy off-white head. Medium sour dark fruit, berries and citrus. A touch of grainy bitterness. Underlying sugary sweetness. Light-medium bodied. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry slightly astringent finish. Nice enough. Could cut down on the sugariness.
