Gun Brewery Invitation Saturday 29 November 2025
Gun Brewery would like to invite you on Saturday 29th November to the launch of our 2025 Old Ale. This will be combined with a presentation by our BLO of a London & SE CAMRA Award to Zamzama IPA. This won a Gold award in the London & South East Regional Champion Beer of Britain IPA (English and New World) Category, meaning it will now go forward to the 2026 GBBF. The event starts at 12.00 with a quick brewery tour at 12.30pm from Paul Reed (Founder and Ex MD of Dark Star Brewery). This is a free event open to all CAMRA members of Sussex Branches. It will take place at our brewery & taproom on Gun Hill.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing a beer or two! If you would like to attend, and so we can get an idea of numbers, please let us know by emailing ku.oc.yrewerbnug@moorpat
