Gipsy Hill Brewing is to become part of Sunrise Alliance Beverages, an independent UK brewing group, the latter making an investment in the London business.
Gipsy Hill will maintain its independence, with day-to-day operations and brewing remaining in the hands of co-founder and managing director Sam McMeekin and his team.
Production will stay at Gipsy Hill’s existing facilities, upholding the brand’s focus on quality, sustainability, and community. The core team will continue to bring fans their favourite brews, including acclaimed session IPA, Hepcat.
“This is an exciting time for us at Gipsy Hill,” said Sam. “This strategic partnership allows us to keep doing what we do best: brewing exceptional beer for our loyal customers.
“Sunrise Alliance Beverages shares our vision for quality, customer service, community, innovation, and sustainability, and this partnership will empower us to continue to thrive and innovate.”
Richard Mather, chief executive of Sunrise Alliance Beverages, added: “We’re very excited to embark on this new partnership. Gipsy Hill is a fantastic business with excellent beers, strong brands, and loyal consumers.
“Our union will enable Gipsy Hill to benefit from our group’s collective resources and operational efficiencies, while retaining its autonomy and character. We look forward to working with Sam and his team to enhance these strengths as a group of independent UK brewers.”
