After three years of perfecting his recipe, Colonel Jim Porter released Newcastle Brown Ale in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1927. Shortly thereafter, it became firmly known as the flavoured beer of North East England and its iconic status continued to spread throughout the UK.
Newcastle Brown Ale is a true one and only. It is brewed with a unique blend of a pale malt and darker caramel malt to give its smooth, characteristic flavour and colour, with an ABV of 4.7%.
