This year has been an incredibly difficult time for us all at the Hop Sun Tap. The tragic passing of Graham, who was, and remains a huge part of what we do, has left a significant mark. His passion, dedication, and love for this taproom and our community will always guide us. We are absolutely committed to continuing this journey as his legacy, and we deeply hope that our wonderful patrons and friends will continue to support us.
As a small independent business, everything we do comes from a deep love for what we believe in. There are no mysterious backers or big investors keeping us afloat – it’s all down to our incredible community. So if you love what we do, here are a few ways you can help us keep the taps flowing and spread the word of the Hop Sun:
- Leave a kind review on Google or your favourite social media platform.
- Follow us on our socials (Instagram / Facebook) to stay updated and share the love with your friends.
- Spread the word – tell your mates about us and why they should check us out.
- Join one of our many events – there’s always something happening at the taproom.
- and of course, pop in for a drink and a chat whenever you can – every pint poured and makes a difference.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your continued support. It means the world to us.
