Description
The soul of every great beer is in the grain. Established in 2006 in barns at South Farm, Alburgh, with Oak as the first beer, Grain Brewery has since grown and grown. From originally only selling beers in farm shops, local food festivals and farmers markets in Suffolk and Norfolk, our beers are now available on draught and bottled across most of East Anglia. The Plough was the first Grain pub in 2010, with keg production starting in 2012. The Spread Eagle in Ipswich and The Corn Hall in Diss followed, and who knows what the future holds?

Cask gravity at St Albans BF 2007. Copper colour with an almost disappeared head. English hop aroma. Lots of English hop, watery in mouth though. In fact unpleasant moutfeel, good English hop harsh finish. I can’t remember having a beer that made me wretch as I drank it, even though in no way is there anything wrong with it. More or less has to go down as undrinkable. I had to pour it away.

Cask condition, handpull at Wenlock Arms. Black colour with thin tan head. Not much of a stout really, some toffee, some ashtray, some dark choc, some smoke. It’s ok, but very much needs to be better.
