Brewery
Long Melford, East of England
Some of the best ideas begin in the pub, and Nethergate's was no different. Back in 1986 two old school friends, Ian Hornsey and Dick Burge, found themselves in a Clare tavern lamenting the sorry state of local beer. They now brew from Long Melford in Suffolk, and Old Growler is the best known.
Nethergate have been at this a while: Old Growler, their porter, has picked up CAMRA's Winter Beer of Britain twice, which tells you plenty about where their reputation comes from. Names include Craft Lager and Stour Valley Gold through to Suffolk County and Venture, plus Venture Point Five if you want all the flavour at just 0.5% ABV. The Growling Dog series is where they get more adventurous, showing off a more modern brewing approach alongside the traditional stuff. There's cider too, in Press Cider.
UK delivery is £6.25, free on orders over £70.
