Nipperkin - Not only does it feel like you're having a cocktail in your suspiciously wealthy and eccentric aunt's parlour, but every single drink here is so deftly judged. Their focus on British produce showcases unexpected flavours in classics, the view of the bartenders tempering ice lulls you into a doe-eyed daze, and the people watching would have given Jilly Cooper plentiful material. (RIP Dame J)

The latest wins build on last year's triumph when Hawkstone Lager was crowned England's Best Lager. This year's medal haul spanned the full product range, underlining the brand's depth and consistency. Hawkstone IPA and Hedgerow each won Gold medals, Hawkstone Cider also secured Gold, while Hawkstone Session and Hawkstone Black picked up Silvers, and Hawkstone Lager and Hawkstone Vodka were each awarded Bronze.
