Description
In 1965, Lacons were taken over by a Whitbread who closed Lacons down in 1968. Subsequently reclaimed independence in 2013 and started brewing again.

Early on, beers were produced under a number of names, including Courtyard and Wilbur Wood. Launched under the Lacon's Name in May 2013.

Based in Norfolk, Lacons Brewery is home to Lacons Encore, the award-winning amber beer. Our brewing team is committed to using the highest quality Norfolk malt along with the original Lacons yeasts. Developed over 100 years ago and used in every brew, endowing all our new beer with centuries of brewing heritage.

(Cask at Southampton Arms, Gospel Oak, London, 24 May 2018) Copper colour with frothy, off-white head. Malty, fruity nose with notes of apricots, caramel and tea. Malty, fruity taste with apricots, caramel, orange peel and a mild bitterness in the finish. Medium body, with a certain sweetness.Tasty and well balanced. Quite nice.
