Brighton Scores Brewery Extension

Brighton & Hove Albion has renewed its partnership with Lewes-based brewery Harvey’s.

The Premier League club’s extension sees the relationship between the pair grow to 18 years after a five-year agreement was signed.

Harvey’s has been available for Albion fans in the club’s Amex Stadium since it opened in 2011, making the 30,000-capacity one of only two stadiums in the country which serve cask ales to home and away fans.

Harvey’s will continue to be served throughout the stadium including in the Harvey’s Lounge in the West Stand as well as Dick’s Bar, and the Harvey’s Beer Wall.

Russell Wood, Albion’s Head of Commercial, said, “We have formed a wonderful partnership with Harvey’s and we are delighted it will continue for a further five years.

“Our fans enjoy Harvey’s beer on matchdays and will continue to be able to do so at the American Express Stadium for many years to come. Our thanks to Bob Trimm, and the team at Harvey’s, who are such a pleasure to work with.”

Harvey’s Brewery National Account Manager Bob Trimm, added, “Harvey’s are proud to extend our partnership with a club that puts its fans first and is at the heart of Sussex. 

“As an eighth generation family business and fans ourselves we can appreciate the difficulties the club has had to overcome to achieve so much success. We are immensely proud to be able to continue the journey and look forward to raising a glass of Best Bitter in celebration of more success in Europe next season!

“As they say in Sussex, ‘We Wunt Be Druv.’”
