Harvey's has been brewing in Lewes for over two hundred years.A wine merchant, John Harvey brewed his first pint in Bear Yard opposite the current site. He was brewing part time, sharing his plant with another brewer, Thomas Wood.
In 1838 he built a new brewhouse on the current Bridge Wharf site which he had purchased for £3,707 and went into business with his three sons. It was Henry Harvey who took over the brewing - he was producing stout, ale and porter in the mid 19th century.
