Description
This Victorian property was originally home to the Cannon Brewery, which closed during World War I. It was later home to a Greene King pub called The St Edmunds Head, which closed in the early 1990s. The St Edmundsbury Record Office shows Pat and Liz Spillane purchased the property from Greene King in 1994, renovated the buildings, and reopened as The Old Cannon Brewery in December 1999.

The seven barrel brewplant is situated in a room above the bar, by the bar and in the pub cellars.

1/3 pint on a sample tray, cask at the Old Cannon brewpub. Filmy layer, poor lacing, clear amber body. Bready malts on the nose. Malt-fruity flavours, caramel and ripe fruity hints. Okay bitter ending. Decent. (Bury St Edmunds 12.11.2021).

Cask: Poured a murky yellow with two finger frothy lacing off white head. Aroma is fruity, citrus, tropical, little astringent on nose. Taste is fruity, bitter hops, hard to place my finger on fruit, melon, and citrus, lingers around the palate.
