Description
A little info about us and our farm. We were founded in September 2009 by father and son team, Glyn and Tom, and are situated on their family farm slap bang in the middle of Sussex, just down the road from the South Downs National Park. We grow, press and bottle only the best and tastiest Sussex fruit for you to enjoy. We’ve been doing the growing bit for 30 years!
All in all we are passionate about our drinks and believe there is nothing better than the real deal so we say a big fat NO to adding sugars or preservatives; why fix it if it ain’t broke!

28/3/2018. Can from Four Hops, Reigate. Pours cloudy dark amber / pink with a quickly diminishing white head. Aroma of apples, sweet caramel, blueberries, raspberry, and strawberry. Medium sweetness, contrasting well with a very intense tartness. Moderate body, oily texture, lively carbonation. Sharp, bittersweet finish. The level of sharpness takes a bit of getting used to but becomes very enjoyable.
