Hide AdBob Emms, CEO of Bedlam Brewery, said: “We were deeply saddened to learn of the death of Dame Vera earlier this year, who leaves so many wonderful memories of the positive messages she portrayed during a dark period in our nation’s history.
“Given the challenges we’re all again facing, we thought we would produce The Dame to enable our customers to raise a glass in her memory and look forward to better times.
“The imagery we’ve created combines local landmark Ditchling Beacon with a field of poppies, both of which were dear to Dame Vera’s heart.
“So here’s to you Dame Vera, thanks for all the memories you have left us with and on your behalf to all of our customers – keep smiling through!”
