ASB Scoops First Prize at Tesco's We are delighted to report that bottled ASB (Arundel Special Bitter) has just won first prize in the Tesco Drinks Awards (South Eastern Region) for 2008. Director Jeremy Owen says: 'We are delighted to have won this award and I am thrilled to see Tesco are recognising the value, high quality and consumer appeal that local beers bring to the market'. Click here to read the full press release, which promises that ASB will be available in Tesco stores throughout the south east from 28th April. Home Page After that excitement, welcome to Arundel Brewery's website! While you are here, don't forget to have a look at the 'Outlets' page, which features a number of local pubs that stock our beers. Thirsty drinkers need to know where they can find our products! We work hard with the licensed trade to make sure that our draught beers reach you in top condition. We are also increasing our bottled range which is proving very successful in the supermarket trade, as you will have read above. Having won a listing with Sainsbury's for bottled Sussex Gold (our most popular beer), we were thrilled to be told that bottled ASB had won first prize in this year's Tesco Drinks Awards. Please visit us again to catch up with our news and developments – and don't forget that we have an off licence, so retail customers can buy our draught or bottled beer straight from the brewery door.

Local Archaeology Before the present small industrial estate was constructed on Ford airfield, local archaeologists were invited to excavate the area, since it was rumoured to have been the site of a great centre of Celtic culture and festivities. Most interesting amongst the finds were fragments of ancient earthenware drinking vessels, inscribed with Celtic runes which seemed to form part of a single epic poem. While it has proved impossible to piece together all of the lost verses, the final stanza is of particular interest to scholars and brewing historians. The conclusion of this archaic rhyme, loosely translated, is shown in the next column. Down the Hatch!
