Harveys...underrated?

Never seen any of their beers on tap or in bottles where I've drank/bought bottles.

 

Same here, but would like to try some.

 

I hear Harvey's is very good, but since I live in the north of England I've never tasted a drop.

The thing to remember it's that the ratings for British beer on ratings sites are meaningless. I guess they're OK for American beers and just maybe Belgians, but not ours.

 

I had Sussex Dark Mild today. Hmm. Better than Sammy Smith's Dark Mild I suppose.

 

I don't think Harveys travels that well.

I've drunk Harveys Best in West Kent/East Sussex pubs and really enjoyed it.

In the Market Porter it was decent but nothing more.

 

I always pay a visit to The Royal Oak when in London. Good honest ale.

 

I was in there on Saturday!

 

Beers always excellent, food likewise, and they always have all the seasonal beers, even if they have to knock off the Armada to free up a pump.
Harvey's Sussex Best turns up on the guest beer circuit quite often, but it is a small brewery, with limited distribution.
They now have a second London pub: The Cat's Back, in Wandsworth SW18.

 

Check out this place.

It's an old tale but I'll tell it again...whenever I'm in Greenwich I always head here ASAP.
Harveys Sussex Best, great bait and a proper pub atmosphere.
