Bartrams Brewery





Suffolk's award winning micro brewery.

Bartrams Brewery started in 1999 in a small industrial unit in the village of Thurston using a five barrel plant purchased from Buffys Brewery. In the first year of production The Bees Knees gained a commendation at the Cambridge Winter Beer Festival, and Captain's Stout was voted best Stout at the Doncaster Beerex. In 2000 Cherry Stout managed to win the Overall Champion at the Cambridge Beer Festival.

In 2003 Cherry Stout won Best in Class and then was voted Second Best Beer in East Anglia by the S.I.B.A. (Society of Independent Brewers). It went on to win best in class nationaly. Stingo gained a silver at the Norwich Beer Festival. In 2003 production had moved to Buffys Brewery and for the last couple of years we have shared the same plant. In 2004 Grozet won a Silver at the Peterborough Beer Festival.

In the Spring of 2005 the original brewery plant was moved into a building on the Rougham Airfield, and in August the first tentative brews were let loose on an unsuspecting public.

2005 was quite a year! With Captain's Stout winning best in class at Leicester Beer Festival; Cherry Stout winning a Silver at Peterborough; Marld winning a Silver in the regional S.I.B.A. finals; and Coal Porter winning Supreme Champion at the Letchworth Garden City Beer Festival. 2006 was a quiet year with just the one award and that was from the Labologists Society for the set of 12 Zodiac labels. 2007 on the other hand was a whirlwind. The regional S.I.B.A. awards saw me gaining a total of four - a bronze for Rougham Ready, a Silver for Marld and a Silver for Comrade Bill Bartrams Egalitarian Anti Imperialist Soviet Stout in cask whilst the bottled version was given a Gold. The National S.I.B.A. Finals saw 'Comrade Bill ...' being given a Gold and declared the Best Bottled Beer in the Country, and at the Bury 2007 Beer Festival Mother McClearys Milk Stout won the overall champion.
