## About

We first started brewing in the summer of 2020, using an 8BBL plant. Our Brewery & Taproom usually has two beers available for takeouts or for drinking in our venue when open. The Taproom is currently only open downstairs but the upstairs is being prepared to accommodate larger numbers.

The brewery name and logo reference the Maunsell Sea Forts north of Herne Bay, which were built during the Second World War. In the mid-1960s the forts at Shivering Sands become home for a while to pirate radio stations, including Radio Sutch, which was set up by Screaming Lord Sutch.
