We are delighted to announce our new partnership with Sussex’s oldest, independent brewery, Harvey’s. The new partnership will see us serving a full range of Harvey’s products throughout the Dripping Pan and coincides with the launch of their new table beer – Sisters – which champions the women inside Harvey’s who have played a significant role in securing their success and sustainability within the industry. The partnership and Sisters will launch on ‘National Sister’s Day’, on 4th August.
Alongside Harvey’s we have revamped our cellar, optimised our ability to serve swiftly, and provided a brand-new feel to the Rook Inn, with a new bar set-up. Together, we have also ensured we are more sustainable by reducing our wastage, and that we can deliver amazing-quality beer to all, at every game. This season’s offer will include a wide variety of Harvey’s beers at every Lewes FC home game and a variety of guest beers from other Sussex-based breweries.
Lewes FC director Joe Short said: “Our agreement with Harvey’s is part of a strategy to continually improve the club’s facilities and the fan experience for supporters at the Dripping Pan. We are a community-owned club, here to serve our fans, and we are delighted Harvey’s have come onboard to help us to deliver that going forward.
“We’re so proud to deepen our partnership with Lewes FC, with our range of beers now being served throughout The Dripping Pan. It’s especially exciting to launch our rebranded ‘Sisters Table Beer’ at a club renowned for its groundbreaking thirst for, and commitment to, gender equality. We say, ‘Cheers to Lewes FC!’
We expect Sisters table beer at 3.4% will be a popular choice amongst fans, while also highlighting the huge and invaluable contribution women make to our football club and sport as a whole.
