May your Christmas be full of festive beer! Enjoy this exclusive opportunity to visit the house after hours in all its glorious festive decoration.
Join Collections Manager Kimberley James for an up close and personal look at Gilbert White’s very own brewing book, take a tour around our nano brewery and onsite brewhouse which dates to 1765, before heading over to The Jubilee Tap to sample some the beer brewed to Gilbert White’s original recipes by our team of volunteers. Enjoy sampling our seasonal special ‘Wass-ale’ along with some delicious canapés cooked by our Head Chef Chris.
