Went in to purchase a couple of raffle prizes and the lady at the Bury St Edmunds shop very kindly gave me a gift box of 2 bottles and a glass for free. The raffle was in support of The Hearing Dogs for the Deaf and St Nicholas Hospice and was part of Abbey Lodge Masonic meeting. Thank you to Nethergate.

Without a doubt the best brewery tour I've been on. Not only were the beers delicious, our guide was a former publican and brewing expert who gave a fascinating account of the brewery's history as well as the brewing process. There's a great taproom which seems beloved by locals.

Phenomenal beer and really friendly staff. Can't beat Nethergate beer. The brewery tour is also well worth a visit.
