But there was another surprise to come. When Jim received his award at the Selden Arms Winterfest 2020 last weekend, he was also presented with a second award for 2019.

Brighton and South Downs CAMRA chose Jim’s tiramisu stout as the best Sussex beer at the Brighton Festival 2019 and awarded him the Bex Robbins Shield.

Jim said: “I am over the moon about winning the Worthing festival two years in a row and the best beer on the Sussex bar at the Brighton Festival, held last year, came as a complete surprise.”

Jim is currently cuckoo brewing at Goldmark in Poling.
