Suffolk
Suffolk is a historic beer-producing county in eastern England with a brewing tradition dating back centuries. The region is known for its traditional English ales, particularly bitters, milds, and IPAs, often brewed using locally grown barley from the fertile Suffolk farmland. Notable breweries include Adnams (established 1872) in Southwold, Greene King in Bury St. Edmunds (dating to 1799), and St. Peter's Brewery near Bungay, known for its distinctive oval bottles.
