Our beers
For beer-lovers the White Lion serves a selection of real ales straight from cask to glass on our traditional stillage. Only a handful of pubs in East Anglia still do it this way: no gas, no pumps, just a cooling jacket to maintain optimum temperature. We are listed in the Good Beer Guide.
Brewed from our own micro brewery just a few strides away from the bar:
Uffa Gold 3.7% ABV – gold in colour, a good session ale flavoured with goldings
Uffa Longboat 4.5% ABV – an amber hoppy citrus ale
And...
Adnams Kobold lager 4.5% ABV
Adnams Southwold bitter 3.7% ABV
Guest ales
We have occasional guest ales such as the locally brewed Victoria (3.6%) from Earl Soham, Wherry (3.8%) from Woodfordes in Norfolk, Gold (4.4%) from the Green Dragon microbrewery in Bungay and a good variety of others during the summer months.
Alternatively we have local Aspall’s Draught Suffolk Cyder (5.5%), and a wide range of bottled beers, wines, spirits and soft drinks
Our wines
A crisp sauvignon blanc and a mellow chardonnay are among the white wines available while the reds range from a subtle Merlot to a more robust Cabernet Sauvignon.
