Award-winning Sprig & Fern Brewery has added another success to its list of accolades with two placings in the 2019 New World Beer & Cider Awards Top 30 beers and ciders list.

Sprig & Fern Brewery’s Scotch Ale and limited release Doppelbock beer are the brews that won the favour of the judges, described by the judges as “absolutely outstanding” and “an elegant drinking experience”.

Sprig & Fern Brewery general manager, Lee Brown said that receiving such feedback from the judges and having two of their products chosen for such a select list is an achievement of which the entire Sprig & Fern team can be proud.
