Art of brewing

Greene King brews all of its beers in Bury St Edmunds, where ale has been a feature of life since at least as far back as 1086. But we've taken the traditional art of brewing to new heights, producing what is arguably the finest range of cask ales in the country. Our beers are as much at home in city centre nightspots as they are in the cosy lounge of the village pub; we've taken the traditional craft of brewing and turned it into an art form. No other UK brewer is as committed to cask ale.

Greene King does, however, believe in catering for every taste, which is why all Greene King pubs provide the usual guest beers such as Guinness, Stella Artois and Carling.
