## About

With a rich history dating back to 1760, the Lacons name and ales are synonymous with brewing and drinks supply in East Anglia and beyond.  

After a 45 year hiatus in 2013 Lacons regained independence and began brewing again using the original Lacons yeast endowing all our new beer with centuries of brewing heritage.  Since then we have been recognised on a local, national and international basis, winning many awards for our fine ales.

Over the years, the brewery has produced an extensive range of draught and bottled beers that have been savoured by generations of appreciative ale drinkers. Ranging from Audit Ale, brewed specifically for Oxford and Cambridge College’s ‘Audit Days,’ to the renowned Highlight, a strong pale ale named after the celebrated TV programme of the day.

In addition to our range of multi award winning ales, Lacons distributes upwards of 2000 product lines from Keg, Craft and Cask Beer to Fine Wines, Premium Spirits, Soft Drinks and everything in between to 1000s of licensed establishments every week of the year.
