The Bob Copper Centenary Ale at Harveys Brewery, Lewes

6th January 2015 marked the centenary of the birth of Bob Copper. The suggestion to Harveys that they should have a brew to mark the occasion came from Shirley Collins. The brewery took the suggestion straight away with enthusiasm, so at 8am that morning six singing members of the Copper family gathered at the brewery to watch the head brewer, Miles Jenner initiate this very special brew. As soon as the process was in motion, John Copper led the family in one of Bob's favourites; a most appropriate song, "Oh! Good Ale"
There was a TV crew there, a radio crew to feed the event live into the "Today" programme and local newspaper reporters
