A blend of a mature and young ale creates a porter of traditional character that’s dark cherry in colour and complex in taste. Aromas of liquorice, rum, raisin and chocolate with hints of coffee are in abundance in this full-bodied, warming ale.

 

Contains Barley.

St. Peter’s Brewery is one of England’s original craft breweries, founded in 1996 in former traditional agricultural buildings alongside the moated St. Peter’s Hall, deep in the picturesque Suffolk countryside.

The location, in the village of St. Peter South Elmham, near Bungay, is ideal for the excellent water quality used in the brewing process – all beers brewed at St. Peter’s Brewery use water filtered through chalk deep beneath the brewery, obtained from our own deep bore-hole.

The unique balance of East Anglian malt, carefully selected hops and the time honoured skill of our master brewer create a range of truly distinct classic English cask-conditioned ales, also available in our iconic 500ml oval bottle and 30 litre kegs.

Alongside our range of ‘traditional’ ales, such as Best Bitter and Golden Ale, we also produce some more unusual beers, such as Honey Porter, Plum Porter and Citrus Beer that replicate traditional pre-nineteenth century practice of adding honey and fruit to create special seasonal brews. Our most recent developments are contemporary session ales such as Pale Ale, a 4.2%, hoppy and aromatic ale with bright citrus flavours. With our Without® brand we have created a range of true 0.0% alcohol free beers. Malty, full-bodied and bursting with flavour, St Peter’s Without® is brewed to the exact same standards as our traditional craft ale, just without the alcohol.

The name St. Peter’s Brewery was an obvious choice as the brewery is situated in the Suffolk village of St Peter South Elmham, in former agricultural buildings adjacent to St. Peter’s Hall.

The logo was designed to depict a barrel traditionally used for brewing beer and the raven is a symbol of the Vikings – the moat at St Peter’s Hall most likely dates from the tenth century when moats were thought to have been dug as a defence against the Vikings who raided the Suffolk area well into the 11th Century.

The key represents the keys of Saint Peter – the keys of heaven. Saint Peter is often depicted in artwork as holding a key or a set of keys.

The iconic oval shape of our signature 500ml bottle is based on an eighteenth century gin bottle from Gibbstown, by the Delaware River near Philadelphia.
