Welcome to Titsey Brewing Co
Hidden in a former military bunker turned brewery in the Surrey Hills, Titsey Brewing Co specialises in crafting refreshing ales and lagers with an adventurous spirit.
Based at the highest point of the North Downs Way, next to Botley Hill Farmhouse, we are inspired by the history, heritage and spectacular views of the Titsey Estate where we are based.

![In the spirit of #Tryanuary we bring you our 3.7% Hoppy English Pale Ale, the Gresham Hopper. A fantastic history behind the name of the beer, read on for the Legend of the Grasshopper!
๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐บ [ gresh- ๐ถ๐ฉ๐ฎ ]
The Gresham family was a prominent family during the Tudor period, with John Gresham acquiring the manor of Titsey in 1534. Both he and his brother, Richard, were Mayor of London in their lifetimes having moved from Holt, Norfolk to London to seek their fortunes. John Gresham made his wealth via trade with the Middle East and the Baltic, as well as founding the Russian Company during the time of Ivan the Terrible. Like many of his successful contemporaries he invested this newfound wealth in land, buying several manors on the Kent-Surrey border including Titsey Place.

The legend says that Roger de Gresham, John Greshamโs ancestor, was abandoned as an infant in the marshlands of Norfolk in the 13th century. A woman nearby was alerted to the child by the sound of a grasshopper and hence the crest above the coat of arms takes the form of a grasshopper. Although we would like this beautiful story to be true, it is more likely that the grasshopper is simply a heraldic rebus on the name Gresham, with ๐๐๐๐ being a Middle English form of ๐๐๐๐ ๐ .
The grasshopper seen on the bottles and the Titsey Brewing Co. logo represents the grasshopper at the top of the Gresham family coat of arms. This same grasshopper is found in several places around the country, including the golden weathervane on top of the Royal Exchange in the City, which was founded by Thomas Gresham in 1565, as well as at Gresham Holt School, Norfolk.
More locally, the grasshopper has given its name to The Grasshopper on the Green in Westerham and The Grasshopper Inn at Moorhouse. It can also be found on the Titsey Crest alongside the Leveson Gower Wolf, representing the joining of two of the prominent families in the Estate's history.
