GIPSY HILL BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS!

We’re helping celebrate Gipsy Hills’ 8th Birthday. We’re big fans of this South London outfit and we’re looking forward to sharing some rather great beers with you all… From their excellent core range through to some rather special beers brewed just for the day itself - including a Strawberry Shortcake Sour with Happy Endings (who make banging Ice Cream Sandwiches), a Pina Colada inspired NEIPA with Point Cocktails and a big Imperial Chocolate Cake Pastry Stout with Chatsworth Bakery.

Dry Jan is over and here’s a great way to celebrate!

If like me you have been involved in Dry January, you may well be looking forward to this weekend.* Well done you did it - enjoy a drink if the fancy takes you. Listen up, though, I’m not advocating everyone who’s been alcohol free in January go out on a huge bender as that’s just not sensible but I would recommend that you try Tonbridge’s first Beer Weekend!

WFH – Will Edge, Greensand Ridge Distillery

Wow! What a 24 hours! If you're still reeling, I promise there'll be no mention of that election & especially not that man! Instead I'd like to introduce you to the Greensand Ridge brand, currently building a reputation for its gin. This gin has only been around for a few weeks but it's already being talked about. Will Edge and his family have set up home in a beautiful 19th century coach house in Shipbourne with spectacular views over the Greensand Ridge. The stables have been transformed into part science lab, part bottling[...]
