Harvest Gold ale to continue in 2020 20 Jan

As we approached the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society’s 150th anniversary in 2019, we teamed up with Ferry Ales Brewery to produce a special ale called Harvest Gold to mark the occasion.

After a year of sales, the ale has become Ferry Ales’ third top selling product. And we’re excited to share the news that Harvest Gold will continue to be produced in 2020!

A staggering 8,000 litres have been sold throughout the year, and it’s now on sale at various outlets throughout Lincolnshire including Co-op stores, Doddington Hall, Uncle Henrys and Pennells – as well as here at the Showground at our events.

Described as a well-balanced beer with malt and citrus flavours, the hops used are grown in Dunholme by Lincolnshire Hops. A portion of the profits from each litre sold is donated to the Lincolnshire Agricultural Society, and hundreds of pounds have been raised in the past year to help us to continue with our charitable work.

So join us in raising a pint to Ferry Ales Brewery – and Harvest Gold!
