Welcome to the Abbot Ale website, our home is Bury St Edmunds where real ale brewing can be traced back almost a thousand years.

The famous Domesday Book chronicles "cerevisiarii" or ale brewers as servants of the Abbot in the town's Great Abbey. The Greene King brewery sits alongside the historic ruins of the Abbey and to this day our brewers still draw water from the same chalk wells used by brewing predecessors all those years ago.

We brew Abbot as cask beer as well as canned and bottled ale. Please take a look around our site to find out more about the beer we brew, our brewing process and history. Why not take a look at our Ale Blog for the latest Abbot news and offers, or you are welcome to come and visit us and take a brewery tour or visit our shop
