2011 (Provisional) Beer List

There will be no Sussex Branches Beer & Cider Festival in 2020; hopefully back in 2021!.

As promised, the full provisional list is now available below. This is the list "as per programme" but, as with any beer festival, expect last minute changes! The beers are split into Sussex and Other Breweries, and the actual programme tasting notes are available to download from here (version 2, 125kb, 20 pages).

We can also now bring you, for the first time online, details of all 122 different bottled beers ordered for the 2011 Festival.
