About Shepherd Neame

Shepherd Neame Specialty Beer comes from Britain's oldest brewery, founded in Faversham, Kent, in 1698. For the newcomer, the range is an accessible entry into classic English beer, from ale to bitter and lager, brewed in traditional British style; for the connoisseur, the history itself is part of the appeal, since the brewery still stands on the same ground and uses water from the same local sources as it did over 300 years ago.

History & Background

The brewery in Faversham can document beer production on the site as far back as 1698, though local history suggests beer had been brewed there since medieval times. The Neame family entered the picture in 1864, when Percy Beale Neame went into partnership with Richard Marsh Shepherd, giving the brewery its current name. Shepherd Neame remains family-owned today, run by the seventh generation of the Neame family, making it one of the rare examples of a British brewery never acquired by a larger group.

Production & Style

The beers are brewed with locally grown hops from Kent, known as one of England's most important hop-growing regions.

Signature Style

Hoppy, Traditional, Balanced
The flavour is balanced and hoppy, with classic English ale character.
