Harvey’s Celebrates a Haul of 2026 Beer Awards

We’re delighted to be celebrating a fantastic collection of awards for Harvey’s at both the 2026 World Beer Awards and British Bottlers’ Institute Awards, with beers from across our range receiving national and international recognition.

At the World Beer Awards, Lewes Castle Brown Ale picked up two Gold Medals, being named both World’s Best Dark Beer and World’s Best English Style Brown Ale.

There was further world recognition for Old Ale, named World’s Best Mild Ale, Sussex Stronghold, which took the title of World’s Best Pale Barley Wine, and our Sweet Sussex Stout was crowned World’s Best Sweet Stout.

Five more Harvey’s beers received Gold Medals and were named UK Winners in their respective categories: Sisters, Ouse Booze, Star of Eastbourne, Imperial Extra Double Stout and Prince of Denmark.

The good news continued at the British Bottlers’ Institute Awards, where both Christmas Ale and Pilsner were awarded Gold Medals.

It’s a fantastic result across a broad range of beer styles and a wonderful recognition of the skill, care and consistency of our amazing brewing team.

We’ll certainly be raising a glass to that. Cheers!
