Beer has been produced in Faversham for over 850 years and the Shepherd Neame Brewery, set in the centre of this historic market town, is open to visitors who wish to discover more about this proudly independent family company and its wide range of award winning beers.
The Visitor Centre is set in a beautifully-restored medieval hall house and, from here, you can join a guided tour which will take you through the heart of this busy working brewery, to see how beer is made from barley to bottle and from hop to hand-pump!
Meet your guide and set off for the 80 minute tour on which you will see how we combine traditional methods and state-of-the-art technology to produce our range of Kentish Ales and speciality lagers. En route gaze into traditional mash tuns; taste natural mineral water from the brewery’s well; try some malted barley and smell locally-grown Kentish hops. Don’t miss The Vaults, housed in the old Wines & Spirits Store and featuring historic delivery vehicles, a recreated cooper’s workshop, bygone pub signs and a collection of hop picking memorabilia.
Once you have seen the care that goes into consistently brewing really good Shepherd Neame beers, there’s the chance to sample some during an enlightening tutored tasting – audience participation encouraged!
Finally, visit the Brewery Shop and pick up your souvenirs. Each participant will receive a jute bag with six speciality ales so you can continue your experience at home.
