The new brewery is complete, sitting on the East Sussex and Kent border, nestled in the rolling hills in our beautifully crafted oak barn

We’re a team of 10, operating a 15 BBrl brewery, a shop, an office and a couple of delivery vans. We produce around 1 million pints of beer a year and deliver to pubs, clubs and restaurants throughout East Kent.
We brew distinctive Kentish beers, using years of knowledge, experience and understanding – we’ve been around long enough to know what we’re doing, and not so long as to be old fashioned.

Family owned and run since 1983, Kent’s oldest microbrewery has been brewing award winning ales with the finest ingredients for over 40 years. Using traditional methods, across a range of styles, we have something for every palate.

We are an award winning family brewery producing traditional English ales using only Kentish hops and the finest hand turned malt.

Established in 2012, we brew seven core beers throughout the year and a variety of seasonal or special beers. Our beers range from pale ales to porters.

If you want a journey of flavoursome malts, hops and a genuinely delicious experience, then welcome to Mad Cat Brewery and the craft beer revolution.
We’re hoping our beers will be enjoyed by people who have already discovered the delights of handcrafted beer, and we want to cheer-on those new ale drinkers who want to join in with the ale revolution, looking for something fresh and modern to drink.
