Welcome to the Arun and Adur Branch.

At Arun and Adur we love to campaign for real ales, visit many of the pubs in and out of our area and we also run the Worthing Beer Festival.

Our branch covers the area between the rivers Arun (in the west) and Adur (in the east) and the A272 (in the north), with the sea being the southern boundary.

Harveys Brewery Tour 2026

On Friday 28th May, we were invited to a brewery tour at Harvey's. Getting there proved a challenge — a fire on the tracks at Angmering had burnt through the cable, so no trains were running from Worthing to Brighton. Undeterred, we all found a way through, by bus, by diversion and by lift, and arrived at the brewery for 5pm.
