An independent family brewer in the medieval market town of Faversham, with a history the company traces back to 1698, and brewing on the site going back further still. The beers you'll know are Spitfire and Bishops Finger, and there are getting on for 300 pubs and hotels across London and the South East.
Shepherd Neame brews award-winning beers inspired by the hop gardens of Kent, drawing most of its brewing and food ingredients from its Kentish heartland. The range splits into Small Batch heritage ales, which channel the brewery's history as Britain's oldest brewer, and Cask Club, a line of more modern styles built around unique Kentish roots. They also brew the award-winning Hürlimann and Singha lagers under licence right there in Faversham. Specific beer names weren't available from the site this time round, so think of this as the shape of the range rather than the full list.
