Description
The Florence Brewery first sold beer in September 2007. Later in 2010 its offshoot the Head in the Hat Brewery started activities. The Florence was during 2016 rebranded as Craft Academy and was used intermittently, primarily as a training facility for its owners, with some beers sold in the pub, although Craft Academy beers sold more widely through the Greene King estate are from the main facility in Bury St Edmunds. By the end of 2018 it seems even these activities had ceased, but the brewhouse remains in place.
