The owners of the multiaward winning Green Jack Brewery boast the quirky title of being the UK’s most Easterly brewers. From small beginnings, they now produce a wide range of ales full of hoppy character. Their Orange Wheat Beer is a noteworthy regional favourite, with well-balanced citrus and marmalade flavours at a delightfully drinkable 4.2%. Green Jack Ales are all made with locally malted wheat and barley in the heart of historic Lowestoft.
