Description
Add information or report an errorAn ale from Greene King in Bury St Edmunds (Suffolk), created in 1951 by head brewer Bernard Tickner; its name, chosen through a competition, evokes the abbey in the heart of the town. Initially sold only in bottles, then in cask. Pale and amber malts for round, biscuity maltiness, Challenger and First Gold hops with herbal notes, Fuggle added late in the hopping process for fruity, floral, and spicy aromas; slow fermentation and long maturation, with a fruitcake character. Warming, malty, and fruity, 5%.
